I’m watching this thread with interest, and will be asking Dr Google in a few minutes.

I hope it’s an easy fix xxx

Have you tried the old fashioned way with a plunger?

Do you know where the build up is likely to be? You can get a set of rods pretty cheap off the internet. Find the manhole cover to your drain outside and go at it that way (be prepared 🤢)
