Essentially any large flush through my house (washer, shower) has started coming up through my basement drain in the floor. I bought this house two years ago for full price and already am 20k deep in hidden repairs (all from basement flooding, yayy). I can explain if I need to, but I really just don’t have extra funds to put to this after the others. I’m thinking I can’t bathe with more than a gallon of water and not wash dishes or clothing until I can fix it.

Edit: Thank you for all the comments. I’ll hire a plumber.

    You have to bite the bullet and hire a plumber. I have the exact same issue and until I can afford the $8k upgrade to the sewer line I just pay $300 whenever it gets clogged. Pouring LineX down my drain each year has stopped the clogs for now but my issue is a tree root one. $10k a year in repairs is my average right now and most of it is going to remove overgrown trees.
