i'll start off by saying, i have no experience in plumbing. i'm good with mechanical things, i just haven't ever delt with plumbing issues.
a few days before christmas anytime i ran the washing machine, it backed up around the drain in the basement floor, about 6 foot diameter. the water does drain then, but just the washing machine dumping all the water is to much for it all at once. a shower sits over this drain by the way. so i call a plumber, they were open on the 24th, and i was off work, so i had them come out then. got it cleaned they said, the plumber and i ran a bunch of water, couldn't get it to back up. i did one thing of laundry and it worked great. well, i go back to do only the 2nd thing of laundry since they've been here today and it backed up again!
have to call them monday, it just annoys me. this is my first house, and i bought it about 8 months ago and i've just been hit left and right with crap, haha. just alot of stuff has happened, that keeps draining my "kegging fund".
it was a big plumbing company that was out, hopefully they work with me on this.
thats all, i just wanted to rant a little.
