Default Clutch hydraulic hose blew---how hard to fix??

The local window tint shop came by to pick up my 92 968 this morning to redo one window. They called me 1/2 hour later telling me that the clutch pedal had dropped to the floor and that Hydraulic fluid was squirting out of a hose in the engine bay if they pulled the clutch pedal up and pushed it back down.

Is this hose easily replaced?..or is it something I want done by a local dealer or independent shop??

Any recommendations in Austin TX for a shop other than the porsche dealer??

brian - well having just done this myself I can say it's pretty easy if you have a 19mm and a 12 mm wrench and a power bleeder... (and a jack, and stands, and tubing for bleeding, and five rolls of paper towels, & etc & etc).

I would think any quality shop would be able to do this job easily.
