thanks guys

Okay you have me thinking now of a solution. Cheers Madrab

It looks useful, I would need an android version. But I am up against at least two tee joints and a bend, but thanks for the help

Think I have only been on the forum a handful times since redundancy in 2011, those handful of times have been split by two long periods of time. Good to know your still kicking about, even if a little more creakier. I'm good John, much the same as you. Father time has creaked my joints and...

Was just wondering if there's any special gadgets out there that would help with the process. I need to get inventive then, it seems.

Cheers John, it's been awhile. Hope you're well.

Just use the one appliance at a time, your demand is greater than the supply offered. Not much you can do about it, unless you generate your own energy.

That would lead me to another question, how would you suggest the overflow of both basin and bath where capped?

Yes it draining, but backing up into the shower when a full bath is emptied. If the shower was in use only (no bath water). Then there doesn't look to be an issue with drainage. The bath and shower are separate from each other.

I haven't ruled anything out, there is no issue with the toilet, no backing up at the shower or slow drainage. So I assume and it's only an assumption that the stack and lower drainage are free from blockage. I suspect it is at the final leg of the waste pipe. All backing up is at the shower...

Tried a plunger, doesn't help I have rods but cannot get passed a tee joint in the pipework. I suspect the blockage is on the final leg of the pipework before exiting to the soil stack and after the all three appliance connections. I would try rodding from outside but it's an internal built stack.

Might be worth considering replacing both the elbow on tee connectors. I would try push fits if it's not solvent weld designed pipe. Then you don.t have to tighten the joints up

Hi all, I have an issue with a shower tray waste backing up, when bath tub is emptying. It seems the shower, bath and basin are connected to the same outlet point (pipes under tiled floor). The waste does drain away but backs up into shower with foul/contaminated water when bath is emptied, not...
