I am sure the previous owner got some dodgy plumber to save some money. He was an Italian guy and was living an awful life in that house. None of the windows worked , shitty paint etc. I am trying to fix all one by one. Also, I live in the city , its a duplex.
There would still be one in the ground, would of been put in probably when the main sewer line was put in, like 100 years ago depending on where you live, anyway waters cheap so I’d say give it a ago, at worst it’s not gonna fix it.
I have tried water, bleach, soapy water , detergent etc but the smell is still there. During summers it gets worst. Its weird that the smell comes from just this one drain. Fuck the plumber who did it. Most of these TAFE guys with mullet are fucking idiots. I am planning to cut open the drain and may be pour in plumbers putty.
Yer it’s wired that it’s only one drain, There could be a jagged edge somewhere down the pipe that could have caught a mass of something that’s slowly rotting away, you can get hand cranked pipe snake there a few metres long, probably 30bucks, might get you outta trouble,
