A puddle under the tub — must be the trap, right?

Usually yes, but not always: water can run along a sloped floor from a wall with a hidden pipe leak, or from an adjacent mixer. Figure out the exact source — otherwise you'll swap the trap and still have a leak.

How much does it cost to replace a bathtub trap?

Plumber's work is 350–600 ₪ including parts. If the bath panel is non-removable or the tub is built in, add 200–400 ₪ for removing/refitting the cladding.

What should I do about a crack in an acrylic tub?

Hairline cracks are restored with liquid acrylic (from 800 ₪); through-cracks need an acrylic inlay or a tub replacement. Home epoxy lasts a couple of weeks — don't bother.

Neighbours below complain about stains. Is it definitely me?

Not necessarily — the stain could be from their own leak or a hidden shared pipe. Better to call a plumber, run a dyed-water test and document the result — it'll help with insurance and the conversation with your neighbours.
