Adventures in Plumbing

Owning a home is always an adventure. The plumbing in the bath tubs downstairs was backed up. Anthony used the snake on all the drains but still it backed up. Finally we had to call professionals out. They did the same thing with a bigger snake down the toilet plumbing in the master.
After $700 for the service, we thought it was fixed but it backed up again. So Anthony dug a hole to see where the outside and inside plumbing meets. The missionaries were lucky enough to help dig. Ends up there was a root that was blocking the pipe. So Anthony snaked it from there and the root cleared out. Anthony installed a plastic cylinder so he could see the junctions easier and block out roots. It was an expensive weekend and of course the weekend that Grammy moved in. Plumbing is essential and so wonderful when it works!
