If this a newly built pool then have the company that built the pool ~ or the plasterer ~come back out and finish their job of prepping the pool before the start up. Whatever it takes to clear the main drain of the cement is their job and they have shirked their responsibility. If they say they have to drain the pool this then that will be at their expense. There should be no charge for this task and they should also pay for the water to refill the pool. k

The pool floor drain you are talking about is probably not a drain but a hydrostatic valve which is there to allow water in from underneath your pool if your pool is empty or partially empty and there is an excessive amount of ground water around the bottom of the pool. these will stop the pol from floating in ground water by allowing the ground water into the pool rather then destroying your pool by lifting it out of the ground.

When you do laundry water comes out of your floor drain all over your floor you had Roto-Rooter snake the pipe but the water still comes up Would it be all right if you tightly plugged the drain hole?

I would say that if water had never backed up in your floor drain, then backed up even after you had the drain line snaked, Roto-Rooter didn't do their job. Once a drain line is cleaned, it should drain like it did before the stoppage. As for plugging the floor drain, it is there for a reason, I would not plug it. There are several items manufactured that will allow a floor drain to drain but if the line starts stopping up they will seal the drain off to prevent water from coming out of the drain.
