My brother had a very similar problem with his house (older house) where the roots were clogging up the main line to the city sewer. He had a plumber come out and try and drill it out, but was having all kinds of issues. So they put a camera down the hole and found that a previous plumber/homeowner, had snapped off the drilling bit in the pipe, and left it in there. So the new plumber had to get special tools (forgot exactly what had to happen to get it out) but it turned out to be a fuck of cluster.
