Sewage smell in your house? Dry traps, cracked vents, and failing sewer lines are the top causes. Learn what's safe to check yourself and when to call a NH sewer plumber.
(888) 480-9811Every drain has a water-filled trap that blocks sewer gas. A floor drain or guest bath that has not been used in weeks dries out. Pour a gallon of water down it and see if the smell fades.
A rocking toilet or a smell strongest in one bathroom points to a failed wax ring. A smell that comes and goes with wind or weather can be a cracked plumbing vent in the attic or wall.
A persistent smell in the basement or yard, especially with gurgling drains, means the sewer line may be cracked or partially blocked. A camera inspection settles it, and sewer line repair fixes it before it becomes a backup.
