We noticed the shower drain was really slow, and when the washer pumped out, the bathtub in the guest bathroom filled up.

I called Mr. Rooter as I was not gonna tackle that. He climbed on the roof and ran a rooter line through the house and did not find the issue. Then he used a camera through the clean-out in the back yard. Rats, the sewer line from our house that meets up to the neighborhood main line sewer 20 feet below ground had moved off the connection.

Maybe when we had the series of earthquakes from the salt water disposal wells a few years back. The state said no more salt water disposal in those area, and no more earthquakes.

Anyway, the break was right under my storage shed. I really did not want to empty it, and move it for the repair. So the brought in a really cute tiny backhoe. He dug a new trench beside the storage building, and a HUGE hole in my back yard.


That is him way down there. Fill in the hole, and we have a fixed sewer, happy wife, and happy husband as well. Whip out the checkbook.
