:confused:
We had our septic tank pumped around 4-5 months ago when this problem first happened.
When we run the washer or take a shower, clean warm water seeps out from under the toilet. It's not a small amount, there could be anywhere from an inch to two standing in our bathroom before we can get it cleaned up. The bathtub doesn't drain or I should say it drains slowly, when we shower. We only have one bathroom & the washer is in the same room with the toilet.
We had some baby wipes that were accidentally flushed a few weeks ago & we had that clog removed. The toilet was doing the same thing. This is the 3rd time for the flooding in the bathroom. One plumber told us we needed to get the septic tank pumped again or maybe our field lines are bad? Is there something else that could be the problem causing the water to seep out from under the toilet?

I suggest having a plumber scope the lines to find out what's causing your blockage. I had a similar problem and they scoped the lines with a camera and also blew the lines out instead of snaking them, now they are working great. It didn't cost too much for this repair.

I'm amazed that the plumber didn't open up the house clean out and cycle the washer to see if the septic tank was clear.
This is what good plumbers do. So I guess you better do it yourself. Open up the house cleanout and flush a few times or cycle the washer. If the pipe fills up and overflows then you have a septic tank that needs pumping and most likely a drainfield that's not doing its job.
If the line stays clear the clog's in the house system. Good luck and get better plumbers. Tom
