Howdy. I've done some plumbing repairs to the faucets and sinks,etc without issue... but I am having a problem with a recently moved-into house. We have dual sinks in our children's bathroom, and both sinks are starting to contain water that slowly drains (overnight empty in the sink). Filling up one sink, causes the other sink to rise. Both drain pipes go into the wall separately. The commode and the tub do not have any backup issues. The 2 sink drain pipes go down an outside wall and then I am assuming under the slab... the house is 1971, and word has it that the pipes are cast iron under the slabs. Neighbors a few years ago had to drill through the middle of the slab/foundation to repair... ouch. I'm worried a bit. Thanks for any info.
