What the customer called about
We came to a home in Claremore, ZIP code 74017, where the toilet and shower drain were backing up. The homeowner also reported a steady leak at an outdoor hydrant, with water sometimes getting into the garage.
What our plumber found
We found two separate cleanouts in the backyard. One was holding water, while the other was open and clear. The sewer line was backed up and not draining.
The older outdoor hydrant at the front of the house leaked continuously, even when turned off. We identified that it needed replacement, with access to its water line behind the dryer.
How we fixed it
We ran a drain-cleaning cable through one of the backyard cleanouts. As we worked the cable through the sewer line, we went inside and flushed the toilets during cleaning.
What this means for your home
When a toilet and shower back up together, we recommend having the shared drain line checked rather than treating each fixture as a separate clog. Keep backyard cleanouts accessible so our crew can reach the line for cleaning.
