I bought a house in December only to find out that the tub is leaking. I know the previous owner knew about this because the ***** was under the bath mat and you can see that they tried to patch it. What is the average cost to replace something like this including labor?

Many variables. Can you do it yourself? What quality of materials do you need? Inexpensive materials and DIY would probably be about $500. If you hire it done and use medium quality materials, plan on $1200-1500. On the high end, the sky is the limit.
depends on the style you want, basic unit (simple) $3-400 and if its elaborite $900-3000
concider having it re finished
at lowes, home depot, menards they are 250$ for the least expensive. it will cost quite a bit to replace, lots of work. A good full day. seriously you can repair it and make it look good. lightly sand it till clean, then apply marine epoxy to the crack, let it dry and sand it again, important is to try to find the same color of epoxy. also you can lightly blend in a spray paint over it, i have used fusion spray paint that is made to bond to plastics.
also there are companies out there that recover tubs with a new finish
If you are not skilled dont attempt to do it yourself.
Hire someone with plumbing skills.
The tub and enclosure can cost from $500-$1,500. Just depends on how nice you want to go. And whether you are changing out the fixture too.
Check out Lowes or Home Depot. They have good prices and they do install for extra.
We just remodeled two bathrooms top to bottom.
And sold the house in one week because they looked so nice.
might wanna stick with replacing tub. repairing is more than likely gonna just ***** again. most fiberglass tubs have a styrofoam pad under them that over time compresses and therefore allows tub to flex. so ultimately repair or replace either way tub has to come out
mobile home? new tub and surround installed 800-1000
Youi can repare the fibeglass. A kit to repare cost about $20.
