My dowstairs bathroom toilet bubbles and loses it water . When the laundry runs the toilet bubbles and even after that is done , I noticed when my I ran the water for a 15 seconds in the downstairs sink (same b-throom as toilet) toilet bubbled again.
Note:
My laundry room is upstairs .
Sometimes the water backups into bathtub dowstairs .


Please help

A "bubble" indicates a clogged line while a "gurgle" indicates a blocked vent. Let me explain. When you flush the discharge drains down the pipe until it hits a partial clog. Then it rebounds back sending a "bubble" of air ahead of it. When you flush a toilet or drain a bathtub a suction is created by the water rushing down the pipe. This suction is relieved by a open pipe that runs to the outside called a vent. When a vent's stopped up the suction has to relieve itself somewhere, in this case your toilet. The noise you hear is the air being pulled through the trap by suction, (gurgle).
You see bubbles in your bowl which would indicate a partial clog in your drain line.
Your complaint, "my dowstairs bathroom toilet bubbles and loses it water."
Puts the blockage down stream from the downstairs bathroom so that would indicate that's the vent, (the lavatory vent),you need to go down with a power snake to clear the line. Good luck, Tom

Speed ball,
Where do I run the snake to clear this clog?
Should this be done by a professional or would I be able to do it?
Do have any tips that you can provide me?

Thanks

Hi Doyle,

This would put the blockage down stream from the downstairs bathroom so that would indicate that's the vent, (the lavatory vent on the roof),you need to go down with a power snake to clear the line.

Run the snake down the lavatory vent until it hits the base of the vent and then put out about 20 foot more. Afterwards flush the vent out with a hose to clean out the line. Good luck, Tom

Thanks Tom,
