PEX Plumbing Supply Lines?

I am considering re-plumbing my house. I’ve done a lot of copper but never PEX. Anyone have a strong opinion one way or the other. I’ve heard good things..and not so good things about fittings, junctions, etc.

Please tell me about tub & shower liners?

I need to update my bathroom which currently has a shower liner in it. I need to replace it and do something with the tub (it’s aqua). I have a large window in the middle of the long wall of the shower with a wooden frame that I currently have painted with marine vanish and put a shower curtain over. How much does something like this cost? Could I do it myself? I know how to caulk and that’s about the extent of my plumbing knowledge. We are on a tight budget anywhere we can save is good.

Looking for ballpark cost to have installed a basic bathroom in home including plumbing installed + full bath?

The home is a modular, the closet was supposed to be a bathroom, but the previous owner did not install a bathroom, and it is simply a huge closet. We need to have all the plumbing done, plus a full bath tub, sink, vanity, toilet, and floor. We are looking for the cheapest and most basic materials for the tub, vanity, etc. The house is in PA. Anyone have any ideas?

My shower unit leaks from the overflow and i cant use it anymore what should i do?

I recently bought a new shower and i fitted it to the existing plumbing where the previous shower was, however when i went to test it for the first time it ran for a few minutes then started to leak from the pressure release valve at the back of the unit, the instructions say it does this if theres too much pressure. Anyone know what i can i do to fix it without paying for a plumber unless its my only option. thanks for any advice.
