Sewer SmellsDec 14, 2008


Our small building shares a party wall to the west with a small building with a commercial laundromat on the ground floor. Lately, the lower floors and basement of our building, and certain areas of one shareholder's apt. smell like the funny smell that the laundromat has inside-like sewer back up, in fact. Anyone have any idea if it is possible that the laundromats drainage and sewers may be mingling water with ours and smells are migrating? We don't know where to begin on this one and hiring an engineer is an expense we haven't budgetd for. Thanks, BN

Try having your plumbing company take a look at see if they can determine where the odor is coming from. It would be cheaper than a engineer?

sewer smells - Joseph Shkreli Dec 18, 2008


Hello, i'm a Live-Out Resident Manager with quite a bit of experience, You should really look into hiring a plumber to inspect your plumbing, also get your ventilation inspected. What i think might work for you, 1st locate the problem, and install an air purifier with CHARCOAL filters, this will eliminate the odors.
