Floor drain and Orangeburg piping

[Mariam Sutton]

I am a single woman trying to work this out, n now need help.
My home was built in 1957 n had Orangeburg for piping.
Floor drain in laundry rm is overflowing because I was told when snaked my pipes were broke, because of only pulling up dirt.
So far I have a wing nut plug in it, n still a little bit of water is coming through. Extra sump pump n dehumidifier. How much to fix this?
Thank you

The fix is to replace the Orangeburg piping; anything else is just a patch.

It would be very unusual to have Orangeburg pipe UNDER your basement floor, because it was only approved for outdoor installations.
