Plumbing Day From Hell
11 am I hear a yell from the bathroom MOMMMMMMM! The toilet won’t flush. So, after plunging with no success, my daughter and I put on long rubber gloves and get this cheap ass snake to put down the toilet. Well it took us a good hour before we could even get the snake over that little hump in the toilet. Then I said I think you are supposed to turn it or something (neither of us knew what we were doing). So she starts turning it, and the snake is getting all twisted and tangled. Then she starts winding it up and its stuck, and I said ohhhhhhh shit. She said MOMMMM! Don’t say oh shit LOL, and I begin laughing so hard I can’t stop. She is sitting on the bathroom floor, her feet braced, pulling on this snake, and I am laughing my ass off. Finally she gets the snake out of the toilet and we decide to try plunging again. Well for some reason I opened the shower doors, and said ohhhh shit again. The water was backing up into the tub. My daughter is like what? what? I said take this rag and hold it in the hole of the tub drain, and while she did that, I was plunging the toilet. Well, low and behold, as I was plunging, I ended up splashing both of us with rusty, crappy water. She had to be ready for work in an hour, and I had a client coming in an hour and we are both covered in sickening sewer water. I was freaking out with that disgusting water on my feet, and went and used the hose outside and washed it all off me.
I ended up calling my client and rescheduling, and my daughter had to go to her friends to shower for work. It was time to call the plumber! It took him almosts 3 hours. He had to remove the toilet, which the bolts were rusted on, so he had to cut them without breaking, or cracking the toilet. Finally he gets the toilet off, and the main pipe cleaned out, and the gas from the city sewer starts coming up the pipe. At this time I was asked if I wanted to replace the linoleum under the toilet because I had just put new linoleum in. I step into the bathroom and the smell was so bad, I said oh hell no, just put the toilet back LOL. So, by 8 pm everything was back to normal, other than getting the stench out of the house.
Never again. I will call a plumber first LOL.
