An indoor digging project

As mentioned in my previous post, yesterday I had to rush to the shop to buy a bilge pump - not to keep my boat from sinking, but to pump out sewage from the bathroom after the sewage tube got clogged.

This evening the toilet problem was solved. There is still some cleanup work in the basement, though ... the sewage pipe was going through three rooms, under the floor. The last room (first on the photos) was the laundry room. For some reason the tenants had five washing machines in this room, that caused quite some extra work before the digging could start.

This oven is not much in use ... but, perhaps it could be useful for reducing humidity problems in the basement, heat up the whole house (as heat usually travels upwards) or to dry clothes.

Here is the old tube - it was completely rusty and broken. I guess that when we got the tubes sucked, they broke more up, probably we also got soil and rocks into the tube together with fragments of broken tube, clogging it completely up in only some few days.
