The tiles have heaved up. The roof has crumples in it (not hard fix but urgh.) Cracks in the drywall. Door not locking or opening properly. Countertops coming away from the wall. All this could be a result of a clogged pipe underneath the floor. Our washer pipe has had a clog and we thought we blasted it away with the blow bag (pressurized water) but we may have just moved it along, causing this lovely problem. Yay.
That was the plumber's opinion today. They tore up the two broken tiles to see if the cement was wet. It was bone dry. We thought it was a leak, but a leak would be wetter. Plus if we had a regular leak, our water consumption would have gone up. It hasn't. In fact it has gone down. By 1000 gallons. That's a lot. So a clog is plausible.
The plumber is returning on Wednesday with a camera to see if there's a clog. Going down the washer drain and the sink drain. They did a lot of testing on the washer and it DID start to back up a bit again. So something is there. The big question is how it's going to be fixed.
At least we have a maybe solution. Better than what we've had before.
