Hi Paul and welcome to The Plumbing Page at AskMeHelpDesk.com You are responding to a 3 year old dead thread so I gave you one of your own. Please check the date before you post. Thanks,

my drains chug and bubble when we run other fixtures now my tub is backed up The bubbles tell me that you have a partial blockage and the backed up tub tells me where.

You have a partial blockage downstream from your tub. This can be addressed in several ways.
1- You can pull the toilet and snake from there.
2- You can snake from the tub overflow. If you need instructions to do this just ask, **or**
3- If the group's wet vented you can snake from the lavatory roof vent. What's your pleasure? Tom
