I must not have drained my cottage pipes too well, because three of them
burst. Two are rigid copper and easily accessable, but one is flexible

am not looking forward to it.

I have never worked on flexible copper before, but am not at all confident
that it is still round. Will I have any problem sweating fitting on the it?
Any great advice on this?

Cut out the damaged section, and splice in a replacement using compression
fittings.
