If it is not blocked under the sink, the block must be after the sink piping and in the downstream section of the drain line. Have you snaked this line? Is the drain line vented properly?
Help with Kitchen sink! not draining, garburator blows water up 2nd sink
I've attached a picture, we installed the new sink as part of a kitchen reno, new cupboards mostly. It drained fine but occasionally when i ran the garburator water and bits of food would blow up the second sink.
last night the sinks stopped draining altogether, i pulled off the whole bottom part from the garuburator, sink and cross pipe at the flexible connector and nothing was plugged, i blew into the cross pipe and it didn't seem blocked.
Any thoughts on what this could be? I'm assuming that the water is not draining into the stack which is about 9 inches to the right of was you can see in this picture. this is the only thing that goes into the stack so i can test it at another sink etc...
any thoughts?

Before paying somebody $125 per hour to auger your drains, go buy one of these drain cleaning bladders. I've got 2 different sizes, and cannot begin to count how many times I've used them to blow out plugged drains.
It may not work for you, but you're sure not out much to try.
