    Drain clogged
    I have a double sink with a garbage disposal on one side after removing the pipes using a snake and liquid plumber the sinks still have standing water in both drains. Could this be my garbage disposal or my dishwasher drain?

    This clog is going to be located further down, through the wall. Try snaking with trap off towards the main drain pipe that enters the wall. While using the snake you will want to feel to see if it hits anything. If there is a vent, the snake might try to go up the vent, you want it to go down almost immediately after it enters through the wall. After finished run warm water down the drain.
    Let me know how it goes!
