      Yes, and that's what I'd assume at this point. Sorry OP.

        It sure could. Is this sink upstairs or down? Are any other drains backing up? I have a 25ft snake I use and if I can't get it with that it's plumber time.

        op here. ok ill go buy a 25 ft snake

        turns out, my stupid ass gf has been dumping coffee grounds and her juicing shit down there. why would the garbage disposal not have taken care of this?

          longer snake is the answer. No idea why people even use disposals, just get a green bin ffs.

          t. just fixed my grandmothers espresso filled pipes.

          >buy a 25 ft snake
          Screw that. The extra 10ft is just as much a gamble. And you'll have two snakes.
          Just rent a drain cleaner for the afternoon. You'll get 100ft and a motor. Will be sure to have a result and probably be about the same $$$s.

              Tell your girlfriend she has to actually turn the disposal on when she dumps shit in it.

          Its another episode of yankees being moronic shitflingers, literally just throwing solid compost down a drain.
