        100 year old 2-flat in Chicago has had sewer rodded to street less than 6 months ago. Problem has returned. City has checked their end and says it is my problem. Is there a way to correct the problem for a longer term (i.e.: if due to roots, is there a treatment to keep them from growing back)? Any suggestions greatly appreciated. [email protected]

          The first thing that has to be done is DIAGNOSE the problem. Is the pipie separated, broken? Find out by video inspecting the line, for a few hundred dollars a licensed plumbing contractor can give you a price to repair, replace with a video of your main line sewer to the street to view with family and friends forever. By the way they make great gifts.
