Hi,
Looking for some advice, I am getting a drain/sewage smell coming from my kitchen soil stack. It’s always been there since I moved in only a few months ago, I had a new kitchen put in and one thing I remember is the drain pipe got bashed about a bit when the kitchen was getting done.
The smell is definitely not coming from the sink trap, I am planning on opening up the boxing around the pipe this weekend to see if I can see if the connections are good.
If the connections are good I was planning on using some expanding foam and attempting to seal around the bottom of the pipe in case the smell is rising from the dwellings below, then siliconing the boxing up to try and prevent the smell. Is this a good idea?
I am on a top floor flat and there are two flats below me, I can’t see any blockages on the soil stack vent on the roof.
Any advice would be great?
