    any plumbers here? or remodelors, handyman... i have a question???

    just have a buddy dump a 5 gallon bucket down the pipe while your in the basement you should be able to tell if its coming from a joint then. using a hose by its self to test the pipe might not yield correct results. also you should have a cap on it anyway as stated already
