The wall is already cut and the pipes are exposed so there wouldn't be any drywall to cut

It's not just a matter of replacing broken pipes. The pipe hammer effect has to do with the configuration of the pipes with respect to pressure waves communicated through those pipes.
Pipe hammer is essentially a shock wave formed from a valve opening or closing fast or steam forming and quickly collapsing along a pipe as it cools. Straight runs of pipe are most susceptible.
Your plumber must determine the cause of the hammer and fix that along with any damage that has already occurred.
