I have a double sink less than 10 yr. the run line from the sink to the vertical wall shaft is clogged.
I have tried drano, remove traps (very clean), have strong snake from HD.
But when I feed it it only goes up the vent line not down the line.
I have access to the wall behind the sink, if I mess with the drywall. Should I open the wall and then then cut the pipe, or call a plumber to avoid the wall mess because they'll have magical powers to clear the clog?
I think the builder's plumber didn't change the drain line slope when the sink and D/W were swapped and the run was made 2 ft. longer than usual, so even if the clog is fixed, it might reoccur if I don't fix the drain slope.
Thanks for the help.
