Yeah! I just bought our first property. But the plumbing is broke
Wow. I am super excited. We just had our offer accepted on our very first rental property. Yeah! Also, we just found out the plumbing needs replacing. Yikes! Any idea on a price for replacing the plumbing (bursted in a cold snap) on a two story, 2 bedroom, 1 bath house-about 1000 square feet in metro detroit?
Thanks so much

If you are wondering you have to shimmy into the darkness shown by that hole in picture two (about 2'x2') and then belly crawl hauling your wife's favorite electric fireplace behind you for about 31 ft over dirt, broken concrete, and discarded timber/refuse until you get to the 1.5' by 1.5' space they hammered out of the stacked rock for access to the next crawl space. Once you squeeze your 38 year old (and now slightly heftier bulk, get off my back I like craft beer and wine) through that hole you can then point the aforementioned fireplace at the P trap while you begin to heat tape the frozen toilet water supply line because "bro, toilet won't flush yo....". My Fluke temperature gun says the ambient temp is about 20 to 30F which isn't bad considering outside is -25F without windchill.... paaartae
