Do you have a picture? 2 x 32amp might mean L&N conductors to the unit.
If it is only 32amp, upgrade the MCB size to the garage ( if possible, assessing conditions )
Then you can run the original stuff + Hottub

But OP said 'massive' hot tub......could have 2x 6kw elements.It's hard to tell what is actually being said in the instructions. 2 separate cables or 2 separates cores? Are you an electrician?
I wouldn't imagine the thing needs 2 x 32amp supply. It's only a couple of pumps and a heating element.

I think we need kw rating from the OP.
Do you recall the make?Going back 2morrow will get full specs and post them
USA alleged 240 gear - only insulated to 120v !.........hot tub could be a foreign model thats been imported as a lot of the US models are designed for multiple wires and often have 2 lives one neutral and one earth, its less likely on Uk models unless very large with separate spa/hot tub compartments within the hot tub as in my example.
Money does not buy style.
Money just enhances you lack of style and taste come to that hence the hideous hot tub.Money doesn't buy class, maybe style but defo not class.
How would you supply garage
Petrol tanker?How would you supply garage
I'm thinking service connector block, a 63A sw fuse, 10 or 16mm swa depending on installation method and distance. Just to try to minimise house lights dimming when warp drive is engaged.How would you supply garage
£13K plus an enormous electricity bill - must have some cash your customer.

My problem is with overload....whenever this is on full power and house is in full use ...will it constantly trip?
nah you are all wrong, wheelie bins are around back of the crescent out of site of the tourists and the hotel guests. besides in bath we have naturally hot springs and a rooftop infinity pool heated by nature in the spa.. its great on a winters evening...Yes I can picture one of those out front on the Royal Crescent next to the wheelie bins.
That thing is huge!! And it weighs 1.5tons, they will need a massive slab for that as well
If they've got gas heating and hot water in the house then it maybe ok - check what else is installed
I would tell them to better spend the money on a taste and style refining course they will then realise said hot tub and current lifestyle adornments need addressing.
So would any of you install this ..or tell customer he needs new supply
