We have been in our house less then a year. The first week that we moved in the toilet started bubbling when we would get showers or baths. We had a plumber come out to check it out. He got roots out of the pipe and wanted us to have a camera sent through the line. Since it was right before christmas we could not afford it. ( Not with three children!) The problem pretty much went away for a while. We would just plunge the toilet when it would come to the top and it would work fine. Just recently the problem got really bad. When you flush the toilet it just fills up to the top, slowly draining. When you plunge the toilet the sewage comes up through the bathtub. When you get a shower the toilet starts bubbling, then when it stops bubbling the tub stops draining. We finally had a plumber come out again. He said that the pipe was collapsed under the house ( we live on a slab ) So we took our savings ( $3,100.00 ) to pay for him to rip up the bathroom and fix the pipe. It worked for two days and started doing the same thing all over again. We can not afford to keep having plumbers come out. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? Please help!
