Well...I'm not very smart when it comes to house things...

All the toilets are backed up and water is backing up into shower...

Earliest and quickest plumber I could get is Letts for a window between 4 and 6 pm...

I have no problem pooping with the dogs...
The wife however is not to thrilled. She's headed to a friends house.

Well, this is going to take a chunk out of my new turbo funds...

Do you own or rent?

Hopefully it is a clog and not a root problem. A professional snake should do the trick and not be super expensive. I have the same problem but its due to tree roots jacking up the piping that now needs to be replaced.

Overbear

well not replaced, but if the pipe is cracked/blocked they will at best, need to push a expanding liner in it and reline it. (neat trick, they push a resin soaked tube down in it, then shoot CO2 down into the hose, that expands it out, cracks the old pipe apart, and replaces it with the now hardened resin pipe)

OP get yourself a good snake, I got one for under 50 bucks that can go from my back cleanout almost to the street, and it runs on my cordless drill for power.

The house originally had a septic tank, and the pipe going to the sewer goes right over it...and the septic tank has been slowly collapsing since we have been here. I think the pipe just have up the ghost. We shall see...

I need to pee...

How old is the existing plumbing?

Hmm. House was built in '52...we bought in '07...so it's from sometime between 1952 and 2007...

I was expecting a thread about how you can't have kids...


Instead it about how you can't drop the kids off at the pool...
