Cleanup and clearing or repairing the sewer are separate jobs. Stop using affected drainage fixtures and contact your local sewer utility and a qualified plumber about the recurring backup; ask whether the problem is in the public main, private lateral or building plumbing. Request the findings and any repair or maintenance recommendations in writing, then coordinate the contaminated-area cleanup. Local utility responsibilities vary. Do not assume a successful first cleanup, or a temporarily flowing drain, proves the underlying problem is fixed.
