Most likely, you've encountered a sewer blockage. The sewer line can be blocked for many reasons, including frozen ground and impacted soil. The pipes can also be blocked by paper, grease or any other foreign material. Another cause of concern is root infiltration, where roots from a nearby tree or tree enter the sewer line via the joint and grow to fill up the pipe with a hair-like root mass.
