That brings me back to what we know. The water is backing up at the basement shower drain, which we believe is the last drain before the house-to-street line. Our only clean out access we have is above that. No house in our area has a clean-out access outside. And a pipe snake doesn't move through pipes as well as you think. It's more likely to get stuck and contribute to the existing clog.
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks

5:23 my laundry drain is backing up. There is a sink right next to it that will back up when laundry is done so I assume they share a drain. Ran a snake and got about 30 feet in and it just stopped. Either hit a blockage of some
Sort or a bend I can’t get past. Stuck on what to do. Figure a bladder won’t work cause there has to be a T or something in that 30 feet. Tried Drayno and it didn’t help. Guess I’m calling a plumber
All new plumbing up to original drain line accept just the sink drain after p trap doesnt flow. Toilet is fine and tub is fine.
I dont have any clean out
If I use the kitchen sink or laundry there is no buildup in the kitchen laundry area but the guess bath room toilet and tub will fill up and the bottom of the toilet will leak
We're having the same problem, were you able to fix it?
What if everything is draining fine, but when the washing machine/ dishwasher/ toilet is flushed it’s making the bathtub and bathroom sink make a gurgling noise?
Try the vent on the roof. Usually that’s air in your sewer system that can’t escape
my toilet and bath drain fine ,my sink is in the middle of the toilet and bath and it empties into my bath ,i had a plumber tell me i have not got an up pipe ? not sure what that is but i know there is always water just below the plug hole in both sink and bath
You could have a build up inside the pipes somewhere like a partial clog. I don't know what an up pipe is.
@@gregvancom thanks for reply ,i have been putting boiling water down the sink and bath hole to try and unblock anything down there but it still comes up into the bath when i fill sink up then take the plug out ,the smell is really horrible too ,any advice would be fab
👍
What if the toilet is fine but the sink drainage water comes up into the bathtub? These are on the second floor of the home
Same here. Were you able to figure out how to get it sorted?
@@bd19831 so I didn't do the job because it wasn't my house. I was told that the sink drain had two pipes going out to drain, which were clogged and the guy got an auger down there. Apparently the homeowner was slacking on preventive maintenance
