Redoing laundry tub drain from previous owner.double sink drain runs right to left to exit point. Concern is that the Drain pipe runs horizontal with no slope to exit point. Should this cross piece be sloped to ensure good drainage and ensure water gets evacuated. Is there an issue with the way it is currently setup.

The tee at the main stack should be sanitary tee, not a wye.
you should not have 2 p-traps on the same trap arm ( horizontal line to stack ).

you need a ram bit from the supply house and you need a 4'' fitting sanitary tee

cut right ontop of the reducer, flush, with the ram bit, drill the pipe out of the fitting.
glue, the new fitting inside the reducer
on top of the new tee you install
add a piece of pipe and connec it with a proflex plastic x plastic shielded band from a plumbing supply
all the stuff i am telling you to buy. blowes or ho depot aint gonna have, PLUMBING SUPPLY
your pipe looks to be a 4'' pipe on my puter screen
so you want a 4'' spiget x 4'' hub x 2'' hub abs tee
you want a 4'' pl x 4'' pl proflex shielded band
you want a 4'' pasco ram bit

Hey frodo and mr David so we've cut away everything and removed everything ! We are using two new individual laundry sinks side by side drains from right to left into main stack
