What it usually is
When many fixtures are slow together, the blockage is likely in the main drain. Roots, grease and a damaged section are common causes, and a camera look may be needed.
What to do first
Avoid running the washer or dishwasher and flushing until it is cleared. Note whether a floor drain or the lowest fixture backs up first.
