Questions about sewer line repair

How do I know it's the sewer line and not one drain?

When multiple fixtures are affected, especially the lowest ones, the main line is the likely cause.

Should I keep using water while it's backed up?

Limit water use. Every flush or shower adds to the backup and can push sewage into the home.

What is a sewer cleanout?

A capped access pipe, often outside near the house, used to inspect and clear the main line. Knowing where it is helps.
