edited February 2015 in General Discussion
I rent a garage apartment on a 3.4 Million dollar estate,on the NW fork of the Loxahatchee river,in Jupiter Florida...
Pretty nice digs huh?
Well.U'd THINK that...
Friday morning as I was taking a shower, my shower enclosure(no tub)began to fill up with raw sewage.
Yep,all the sudden i'm ankle deep in poop.
I rinsed off and got outta there.
Went outside and washed my feet with the hose.


I call the X husband of the "lady of the house",since HE rented me the apt.
I get yelled at for not knowing how to use a plunger and the whole 9 yards.
U guys know me better'n that.
Here it is SATURDAY NIGHT and I still have 1,5" of * poop in my shower,I'm pissing outside and had to pinch a loaf in a godddam bag this AM and throw it in the trash....





Think it's time for ME to call a PLUMBER and send them the bill?

    I would tell him you would be happy to have it repaired for him and you will be deducting the bill from the next rent check. That should get his attention[;)]

    Doesn't sound like a plunger problem. Sounds like the owner needs to call a Roto-Rooter outfit.

    Had something similar last house I lived in, though nobody was in the shower at the time. I hear the weirdest noises coming from the walk-in shower in the master bath. Walk in and sewage is bubbling up. Was lucky it did not overflow. Filled the shower bottom though. Checked the hall bath and a little was in the tub too.

    Called a drain clearing outfit. They power-snaked the line all the way to the sewer main. Had to use a blade to get around something blocking the line.

    The drain guy said sewer line gets blocked by something and starts backing up, uphill. The rising back-flow will push gunk into the smaller lines feeding homes and clog them.

    Nothing for that but a power tool.

    Good advice right there. If you need to prove it to get the bill reimbursed, take those before and after pics. Heck, take pics of the Roto-Rooter guy working too.

    Put on some rubber boots. Stomp around in that shower a bit. Then go to the main house and ask to use the toilet. That will start some crap flying. [8D]
    Just smile and say nothing, let them guess how much you know.

    Photos and a call to the local plumber. Have him clearly document what he found as the problem. Photos of him working and a copy of your check to pay for it SHOULD cool the landlords jets.
