I have a major plumbing problem and not much money to fix it. I bought this home in Memphis and It was vacated by the previous owners because of a major plumbing problem. Here it is, when I use my dishwasher and washing machine, both my toilets and bath and shower over flow, my husband and myself have snaked all of the mentioned and also gone up the the roof, each time it fixes the problem for a few days until I do another load of laundry, then the baths and shower fill up and the toilets overflow if flushed. Does anyone know what the heck is going on, I suspect it is a problem in the concrete slab and I will have to spend alot of money, also might be some kind of vacuum that the snake releases, I'm at my wits end, Please help!!! thanks..
