Alright just joined because im a diy’er and have come to a impass. I have a house built in the 40s i am having a drain issue backing up and flooding into my basement the house is half slab half basement. The drain for the middle 1st floor bathroom apparently has a leak somewhere so once it stops up and water rises above the main drain line height before the tub floods the water is finding a hole and going through the dirt over into the basement. I can unclog and it works for a few months until it backs up and does the same thing i have looked into pipe relining and cant find anything saying if there is a magical way to reline multiple fixtures that meet underground. My options are that if possible or i will have to bust up the slab the whole length of the house to run a new drain line or bust up just the bathroom floor and replumb all the drains to go to a new seperate septic tank installed on the side of the house that that bathroom is on. Or i guess turn it into a closet and build a new bathroom on the side of the house as in adding on $$$$. Any help or ideas would be appreciated thanks!!!
