1/4" drywall?

I think pex is becomming standard in Europe and Canada and is starting to be used more and more in the us.I checked today at lowes. 100' of 1/2" pex is about $26. depending on what style connectors you go with is where it gets expensive. The quickconnects like Jg fittting are expensive but easy to use. The crimp on style are half the price but, the crimp tool is $100 for each size or you can buy a kit for about $180. It has its pros and conns but i think it may be cheaper in the long run to go with the pex.

wonder if you could rent one from an equipment rental place?

Sounds like you are on your way to getting it fixed up.  I know how those "surprises" go!  I feel for ya!

Well we finally got our house replumbed. We went with the pex system. Not including the tool we have about $200 in the whole house. It took a lot longer than i thought it would to run everything and test it. I will take some pics later. We are all so ripping out the wall that was damaged buy the water heater. As well as the cabinerts we didnt realize got wet.

Are you planning to keep the cabinets?  If not, how badly are they damaged?  We're looking for used cabinets for our basement laundry room.
