We’ve got a bathroom in a 3 year old loft conversion. Pretty much the first time warmer weather rolled around a few months after it was done, I started to notice a bad smell in there – somewhat sewage-like, but different from ‘recently used toilet’ smell. This cycle has repeated each year: cold weather fine, warm weather smelly.
I was always pretty sure that while the smell was coming from ‘the toilet corner’ that it wasn’t coming from the toilet itself. The smell is more noticeable slightly off to the side than directly over it.
Eventually I got down on my knees and followed my nose to small gaps that exist between the base of the toilet and the wall.
Could anyone please advise on the likely cause and what we will need to do to fix it?
