Hey Jonathan....thanks for replying and that gives me food for thought.

If the tenant reports to the city that the space isn't properly vented/heated/cooled or the right color (just joking on that one) you will probably end up with a visit from an inspector.Thank you for the helpful reply!

@Aliciamarks Thanks for the reply.

If the repair process requires painting the whole thing, which it may need to look good- I'd optimistically put the lifespan of a professional/specialized 2-part (epoxy or urethane) tub/surround (or tile paint) etc- paint job, with above average prep work at ~3 years.. a "high quality" tub respray like this will cost just as much as a brand new tub, and touching up/blending a spot repair is specialized, expensive work as well. but yes I agree with the other replies either way -(unless, *perhaps* there is already easy access from behind etc to get to the repairs and inspect flooring etc without taking tub out)- it makes sense to rip it all out so you can address any potential water damage, and overall there is no reason the resulting new unit shouldn't cost aprox the same ballpark as the repairs .. and new of course will look much better with a much longer lifespan. 

Thanks for the reply! 

Thanks for the reply and the opinion.

I reply back with my original email, giving them notice of my repair.

Thanks for the reply, Jay.

TIA for your reply.

Daniel- sorry for the delayed reply.
