after the p trap your drain line usually goes back into the wall then turns and goes down under your floor, runs across under floor usually over towards your laundry room or towards your bathroom. the length of the line can run from as little as 10 feet up to over 70 feet. the clog is probably in the line down under floor before it gets to your main line by your bathroom. you can try a home remedy of 8 oz of baking soda enough vinegar to wash it down let it set for a little while than pour hot water down behind it. if that doesnt work. your going to have to probably call a plumber. have a great day Ryan from DRAINPROS IN MEDFORD Oregon

What is wrong if the sink and the bathtub will drain but the toilet wont flush?

The toilet itself is plugged or the pipe from the toilet to the drain is plugged. It may be that the tub and sink have their own drain pipe that may connect to the main away from the toilet drain. Plunge the toilet or sometimes if you fill a 5 gallon bucket with water and pour it into the toilet as fast as it will take it, that will flush out the line. It is a greater amount of water all at once an forces out what the clog is.

Toilet wont work on floor drain?

Probably not. There is no vent for that drain, it did not need one for a floor drain. A toilet is trying to push against the air pressure in the drain.Normally a decent plumber will install a floor drain with in 15 feet of a vented line or will vent the FD in case irt exceeds the 15 ft ruleA Floor drain can be as small as 2" diameter and thus it is undersized for a toilet and a floor drain alread has a trap and a toilet would thus be drouble trapped


Why wont any of the drains in your apartment building will drain?

Most of these drains are equipped with a trap that works to avoid dirt and debris from blocking them up. If you notice a bad scent coming from a floor drain in your home, it means that that your drain or sin and tub lining is clogged.Never pour hot grease even in small amounts in your sink and tub lining. When the grease cools, it hardens and will clog the linings and pipes. Instead, pour hot grease into a temperature safe container and throw it into the trash once it’s cooled down.Bathroom drains can experience a lot of issues. The sink and tub lining can get clogged with hair, soap, toothpaste, shampoo, and conditioner. When these products clog your pipe, you will notice slower draining of water in sinks and tubs lining.
