In this video, I will show you what I did to fix my plumbing issue. I spent about $20 total. For about 3-4 days my toilet was flushing slow, then it was clogged. At one point the toilet backed up into the bathtub. Also when my washing machine would drain, it leaked into my basement. It was a mess. I tried so a lot to o get it fixed and it took a while, but finally got it fixed and wanted to post this video showing what I did. Hiring a professional plumber is definitely the way to to, I just didn’t have that option.

Nicely done. Great Filming, Narrating and step by step descriptions. Thanks.
this is my first comment on a blog (I guess that is what it is called),I loved it it made me laugh,added to my knowledge as I am also trying to be a good steward of my resources. Mostly I loved your honesty, openness and vulnerability.
You’re awesome!! 😄 well done guys! Not thaat is persistence! So glad your efforts finally paid off 💥
Love the voice over. Clear and well understood.
This video made my day! Thank you so much for posting it. Now to dig up the grass that grew over my clean out… 🤣🤣
THANK YOUUUUU ❤❤❤❤ I literally had the same issue! The snake and uncloggers were not working. I went outside and found the cleaning pipe and it was a quarter full. After pumping using the exact same tool, i wasnt making any progress. So what i did was add some boiling water from the kettle and some warm water and filled around half way up to get some increase pressure. I pumped and pumped and water was slowly being vacuumed up and some splashed put. As soon as i took off the plunger, the pressure pushed everything down and was bone dry like yours. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Excellent. Just did mine 10 miutes ago after trying to snake it all day yesterday, but the clogg was to deep for my snake which is 25 feet. Used this method and it did the job, you just have to be persistent with the plunging.
Thank you SOOOOO muchhhh i did it and it actually worked!!!!!!!! I still cant believe it!!!! Easiest fix ever!!!
Outstanding, it worked for me also. Thank you for your post!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!! You just saved us $100’s!

Excellent video. Thank you.
Great video!
Good job!
I’m having this issue right now. I’m headed outside to try the plunger method as I type. I’ll give you the update of my issue. Thanks for the information
You never came back
@@dw6018 legend says he’s till plunging to this day.
Nice job.
I have PTSD from our clogged toilet.
I was plunging, plunging, and then the sewage started overflowing, like a slow, running, volcano. Luckily I was able to contain it, in the bathroom, with using rolls and rolls of Bounty Paper Towels.
I tried Chemicals, Plunger, Pouring down Dishwashing Detergent, with hot water, an Auger. FINALLY !! What worked for me, was hiring a Professional Plumber, with a Professional Auger, and a Professional Service Charge of $400.00
Our house doesn't have a sewer pipe on the yard, he had to climb, on the rooftop.
I'm so scared of this happening again, that we no longer wash clothes at home, we now go, once a week, to the Laundromat, and we no longer put Toilet Paper down the toilet.
All the Detergent Soap, Grime, Dirt, and Toilet Paper, will eventually clog the sewer line again. Better safe, than 💩 sorry.
You needed a 40 foot main drain snake which is much sturdier and use a main drain bladder that goes on your hose.It worked for me.
I didn’t know the 40 foot are much sturdier, thank-you for the info.
if that keeps occuring, and you have issues with the main lines, useing rv marine toilet paper will help. found at walmart in the rv supply section. good video.
About to try this.. going through this same problem now
Usually when the toilet flushing backs up into the bath tub, the main line has a clog caused by roots getting into the pipes. A pro plumber taught me that in old lines, the best repair is to line the old sewer pipes with a resin liner after grinding out the invading tree roots. Clean outs are required every 100 feet on long sewer line runs. If you have such a repair done, you cannot use a drain auger afterwards on the line to clean it. In those cases, you use water pressure to unclog the drain going to the city sewer line. Rental augers have heavier duty thicker cables (around 1/2" or thicker diameter) to cut roots with. Many have long runs up to 80 feet for rentals. Professional plumbers have augers that may be as long as 150 feet.
Thank you!
Great job ma'am from out here in dallas.tx..but just one very important thing it seems yall all forgot is to ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES BEFORE WORKN ON THEZ TYPES OF THINGS !!!!!..., LOL..
True, gloves should definitely be used.
Great job glad you got it fixed just hired a professional plumber but now my issue is getting the bathroom carpet cleaned what we're they thinking when they built this house putting carpet in the bathroom?
I agree! I used to live in a place with carpet in the bathroom, I would of ripped it out if it wasn’t a rental!
OK this is creepy..your house is build identical to mine, like you live down the street. Too cool & super helpful
You in Connecticut?

Thanks so much
Dear Playright: Very good video, preparation, and work. You've covered all bases and figured out a solution using a few inexpensive tools. In your description why didn't you have the option of hiring a professional plumber?
Thank-you. Couldn’t afford a plumber.
My toilets aren’t clogged but any water that hits the sink drains leak into basement.
Would this work with a septic system?
You did good. I don't want to spend money, every repair in nj starts at 500 and we're exhausted by it.
Where did you find the Master Plunger for only $5-$6? Even Amazon charges more.
Where/how did you empty the shop-vac? The best solution I've come up with is to dig a hole.
nice
When the sewer clean-out, outside of your house is overflowing like in your case, that means the sewer blockage is somewhere BELOW that point from there, out towards the street where the main sewer line is. In your case, there was nothing wrong with your toilet.--- Old sewer guy :
Thank you for this comment.
Hey Mark, I just had to have my sewer clean out cleared due to a blockage and now everything flows fine. Issue is I’m hearing a gurgling of air in my guest bathtub when I flush my guest toilette. (Manufactured home) everything flushes but the gurgling is making me concerned. Any insight?
My analogy is if you use some type of water pressure in the drain I think that is key and using some preventative often can be key.the plumbing world never mentioning these things like stuff that can work so we pay them a bunch
Wrong! A professional plumber wouldnt mention this method because we have highly effective and guaranteed to work cable auger machines that can push through just about any sewer stoppage imaginable. This little plunger method through the top of the clean out pipe is NOT effective and this lady here got lucky cause a real.tough stoppage wouldnt have cleared. A good auger machine is gonna get it everytime within minutes. But if you homeowners like playing around with your sewage fical mess.....go right ahead and do whatever floats your boat.
@@Eddie-In-Las-Vegasthat's why you buy the clear out machine and never have to call a plumber again...
Is the water supposed to continuously run like that. Mine doesn't have standing water but no water is running through other than a trickle
Water would flow only when flush toilet or unplug sink or bath tub
They were probably running water inside the house, like a faucet or flushing a toilet.
Link or name to that kind of plunger?
I wish you were my sister or neighbor😂
I cant fing my cleanout 😢
It might just be in your basement
Check the basement or laundry room. You should have a main line drain (and often an overflow drain hole) somewhere around the lowest point inside your home.
It's not on the roof?
This is happening to me after my 10 yr old aka damien used a whole toilet roll. I hate home ownership lol
I took my toilet off, and shoved my 25ft pressure washer hose into the pipe, after a few minutes, it was unplugged .
Try not putting toilet paper down the toilet but in a trash can toilet paper clogs sewer lines
How many toilets are in your house
I have 45 minutes and if anybody finds out I'm going to be in so much trouble. I was so hoping for like the one easy answer. Oh God I'm screwed. Please pray for me perhaps some miracle can find my way
I'm going thru it now
