For your next emergency repair, go to Home Depot and pick up a "Shark Bite" fitting. If you know how Chinese handcuffs work, you can fix your plumbing with these...

I will check those out, get one just in case, I may be out of duct tape, but if it happens more, the bad part will be tearing out walls or ceilings, that is why I thought about the inside coating. RePiping the whole house doesn't sound good. The place is only 18 years old, 2000 sq ft three full bathrooms two story condo. $$$$ You wouldn't think it could go that bad that fast. We shall see when he gets here Tuesday.
