I have been told that they will have to go through subflooring. Any idea of cost?

(or is it simply not big enough for a person) 3) How precisely can they find the burst pipe? Or is there a 'very large' amount of 'holes in the floor' to make? But it sounds ilke a fairly pricey +$500 project requiring not only a plumber but then someone to patch the flooring when they're done. Richard (ROC) --Never be afraid to try something new.
