What our plumber found
The kitchen and bathroom sink drains connected at a tee. We accessed the shared drain through the bathroom sink so we could cable the line serving both sinks.

What this means for your home
When kitchen drain water backs up into a bathroom sink, the two fixtures may share a drain. We recommend having that connection checked before deciding to redo the piping. On this job, we cleared the shared line through the bathroom sink.
