So - tonight I could hear water running - thought "the dishwashers loud or has someone left a tap on" yet to find water gushing under my sink...
I've since noticed an access to my waste pipe which is open... (pic below)
My assumption is that there is a block somewhere along the line causing the waste water to back up and out this opening.
Firstly I've only lived with the newly plumbed house for less than two months - so how can it be so blocked.
But also why is this pipe open in the first place? Shouldn't a blockage block up back through the sink plugs not pour through a giant overflow pipe?
Keen to hear from anyone in the know...
House newly renovated - clearly builders and their plumber will be getting calls and videos in the morning...
So frustrating!!!!
