Bathtub Repair Pros

The local plumbers we match you with handle the full range of bathtub repairs, including clearing slow tub drains, replacing worn overflow gaskets, fixing or swapping a cracked drain shoe, and repairing or re-seating the P-trap. They also re-caulk leaking tubs and track down hidden leaks that show up as stains on the ceiling below. Whether your tub won't hold water or just drains slow, a local pro can diagnose and fix it.

Minor stuff like a hair clog in the drain or re-applying a bead of caulk is fair game for a confident DIYer. But a tub that won't hold water or shows signs of leaking should go to a pro, because a hidden tub leak can rot the subfloor before you ever see it. When in doubt, it's cheaper to have someone find the leak early than to repair water damage later.

Costs vary based on the part that's failing and how easy it is to reach. A simple drain clearing or new overflow gasket typically runs $125 to $300, while replacing a drain shoe, repairing the P-trap, or fixing a hidden leak can run $300 to $850 or more depending on access and any damage found. Our pros provide an upfront estimate before any work begins.
