About every two years I have to ream out the sewer pipe on my old 70 yr old house. The problem cam on quick this year with the shower drain getting slow a few weeks ago and then coming to a complete stop this week.
To snake out the system, I removed the toilet because my clean out is hard to get to and I blew out the wax ring when plunging he drain so I was going to have to replace anyway.
Below are a few photos of my handy work. What a mess! About 4 cups of roots came out.
