I have a builder that roughed in basement bathroom plumbing that I took a picture of before they poured the cement. (I did this will all plumbing, electrical, etc.. before they poured cement or drywalled) After taking the picture they poured the basement floor and 5 years later I put a bathroom on that plumbing. Unfortunately it doesn't drain properly. My shower gurgles when the toilet flushes and none of it actually drains anywhere anymore. The picture shows which pipe was used for each.
Can it be determined from this picture if this venting was done correctly or what the issue might be? (see attachment)
That vent goes all the way to the roof. There is also a backwater valve attached at the end of that large drain pipe that is suppose to carry all the wastewater away.
I've snaked everything, no blockages. Next I was going to dig up the backwater valve and see if it's blocked. Do I have a possible drain pipe airlock?
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.
