I read a post dated 6-21-08 where speedball1 answered the same questions I had, I found his information helpful. But I need to know what to do about the problem.

Every time I use my washing machine, my toilet bubbles and/or my bathtub gurgles. I'm noticing now, even when I run water down my bathroom sink, the bubbles & gurgles appear. Speedball1 said bubbles = drainage clog and gurgles = blocked vent or poor venting.

Also the bathroom sink upstairs is very slow draining. I have used every product I could find to unclog the drain, but nothing has worked. I also took the apart the pipe under the sink to see if there was a problem in the "U" shaped pipe, but no clog there either.

We have checked the vent on the roof and it is not blocked.

How did you check the roof vent, visually?
