When you do laundry water comes out of your floor drain all over your floor you had Roto-Rooter snake the pipe but the water still comes up Would it be all right if you tightly plugged the drain hole?
I would say that if water had never backed up in your floor drain, then backed up even after you had the drain line snaked, Roto-Rooter didn't do their job. Once a drain line is cleaned, it should drain like it did before the stoppage. As for plugging the floor drain, it is there for a reason, I would not plug it.
