Hi Peggy,
I had a similar problem with a bathtub drain. We moved into a house
where the guest bathroom tub drain was slow. As years went by, it got
slower and slower. I too tried everything, not including sulfuric acid, and
was totally stumped. In despairation, I called in a $100 per hour plumber
with a power snake. He sweated and strained and finally ground his way
through a long lost shampoo bottle cap that had become lodged in a pipe
before the trap. The cap had accumulated hair and what not making the seal
almost perfect. It cost but it felt pretty good to get rid of the problem.
The plumber said the worst thing he ever ran into was a marble that had got
stuck. It came out only when the pipe was removed.
