smell of sewage in basement
By
I have had a strong smell of sewage in my basement for over 6 months now. The maintenance people for the townhouses I live in have been out multiple times to "fix" it. Basically, they have sprayed "Flex Seal" over my drain and sump pump. The smell, of course, is still here.

That’s a big problem many of rent paying consumer goes through. As you have explained maintenance people from townhouse has came for fixing the issue but smell is still there. I would suggest you can contact the owner of your house and let him/her knows all the problem you are facing, because you pay rent to them. I would say in the meantime you can follow below procedures if that helps: > Look at every part of basement if any leakages or tore happened into the sewage flooring.. whether it’s wooden or cement. Look carefully at the corners of the basement. My cousin faced similar problem and tried above steps and he was successful in solving it through. Please let me know if you need any further help. I would be happy to help you. Good Luck. |
