Default Plumbing question

The wash sink in my bathroom has a very slow drain. I have used commercial
drain cleaners many times but now even they will not work. The back up is
not in the gooseneck but after it enters the wall. This is an older house
with iron drain pipes. When I plunge it I get some nasty looking brown gunk
coming into the sink. Does anyone have any suggestions other than "call a
plumber". Thanks.


Its easier to call someone for sure. I clean my own drains and so can
you. A drain cleaning tool called a snake can be purchased or
rented. There have been many posts on that topic. Here is a link to
the different discussions I have been contributed to, only five.

How about 15,500 result for "clogged drain" in this group alone? Have
fun. Link:
