The main line carries all of the house's wastewater to the sewer connection. When it is blocked, the symptoms show up in several places at once: a tub that fills when the washer drains, a toilet that gurgles when a sink runs, or sewage appearing at the lowest drain in the house.
Main line blockages are commonly caused by roots, accumulated grease, flushed items and pipe defects. The lowest fixture in the house, often a shower or floor drain, is usually where a main line backup shows first.
Treat a main line backup as urgent. Stop running water and call so the problem does not worsen.
