Toilet backing up into the shower in a 1970s house?
What causes it in Rural Hall
About 53% of Rural Hall homes were built from 1960 to 1979. Lines that age often have root intrusion at the joints or a belly where water sits.
What you can do right now
Try a closet auger on the toilet. If the shower still fills, the blockage is in the main line and needs a cable from the cleanout.
