Live in S. Louisiana. House is about 25 y/o brick on slab. I have a dbl. kitchen sink with disposer on Left.Kitchen sink doesn't drain. Both sided stop up. If I put the drain plug in the Right sink & turn the disposer on, the Left sink will drain quickly. When I then remove the Right drain stopper, the water level equalizes in to both Left & Right sinks. I can repeat the process untill all water is out.
When I run the dish washer, whish is connected to the sink drain, the sink fills up when the dish washer cycles it's draining phase. Again, I close the Right & run the disposer for the water to quickly drain.
If I do this several times in a row, I can notice a little water seepage on the outside of the house, at the kitchen sink area & is coming from between the lowest brick & slab.
I have tried very hot water sitting in the sink. I have rented drain snakes that I can't seem to make go more than about 10 ft. I've rented power drain snakes with no results.
There was, at some point before I purchased the house, a patio slab poured at the area of the kitchen sink. It is tight up against the house slab. I am guessing there may have been a drain access there that was covered. But I'm not sure.
HOW CAN I FIX THIS PROBLEM???????
Thanks
Mike
