Help me with my Drain Pipe
I had ceramic tile installed in an upstairs bathroom and a laundry room last week. I removed the toilet from upstairs bathroom and a washer and dryer from the laundry room on the main floor prior to installation. I put the toilet back on this week and reconnected the washer and dryer in the laundry room. However, now the drain pipe in my laundry room overflows when water is pumped out from the washing machine. I ran a garden hose down the drain abount 34" to where it bends to remove any obstruction if there was one and I was able to run the water full blast with no problems. I also ran a shop vac down that far to see if I could suck out the problem. However, the washer continues to let water out faster than the drain pipe can handle. It is hard for me to believe anything would have been dropped down the drain pipe as it is half way up the wall. Do you think something my have been dropped down the toilet drain in the upstairs bathroom that may be causing the problem? How do I troubleshoot this one?
