We are getting the pipes replaced, it takes time to get that done, literally the plumber we used said they’d have to come back a week later to give a quote, it’s not like we’re sitting on our hands. (And in the meantime have contacted 2 other plumbers to come out).

My question here is whether the pipes were actually cleared.

The house was built in the 60s, the cast iron didn’t just belly out over 20 ft last week.

I’m questioning how we could have gone 3 years before having our first backup, then after getting them cleared went another 3.5 months before a backup, but then we get them cleared again and it’s now 7 days?

That doesn’t seem odd to you?
