:confused:Help! I have tried everything I can think of to get this old drain (the house is over 50) cleared. It will work for a day or two and then clog up again. Here is what I have tried.
1. Used a plumbers snake to get into the pipe about 8 feet down. This worked for a little while and then the slow drainage problem appeared again.
2. Poured down several different drain cleaners - this did nothing.
3. Used a garden hose with an attachment to force water at high compression through the drain. This did help for a while but the problems reappeared one day later.
I have run out of ideas and patience.:mad:
