This afternoon sewage backed up into the tub. It wasn't much, but the last few days the tub has been draining a little slower than usual.

I just scheduled an appointment with Roto-rooter, but just how big of a problem do I have on my hands?

That's God's way of telling you that you're full of shite and should stop posting. Better take the warning and log off forever

Yeah they'll charge $300 minimum to unclog sewer line.

You probably have a hard cake somewhere down the line. Fill up all your bathtubs, open drains at the same time and snake from drain end.

Had this problem when my genius of a wife (no pics) poured grease down the drain

They will charge $300 just to walk up your driveway

This happened less than a month after we bought our house back in 2014. It ended up being a collapsed terra-cotta line between our house and the road. Our house was so old (~80 years) that it didn’t have a main line clean out, which complicated things. They added the clean out and bypassed the ancient terra-cotta with pvc and everything has been fine since.

They do cost a little more, but I have never had a problem with them.

Is there any chance your wife just took a shite in the tub?

Get to closest opening to your septic tank and dump a 5 gallon bucket of water as fast as possible. Should have a cap outside pretty close.

Yep.

Root ball in the line from house to street.

Had to replace that section of line (crack was letting the roots in).
