Hi Guys,
I wonder if anyone can help me please.
We moved into a new residential park home at the beginning of 2016 and for 5 months or so only major plumbing issue was the underneath of the home was soaking wet ( the concrete slap that the home sit on, the home being about 2 foot above this ) It took the site owner all this time to finally get a plumber to find that the waste from the sink/washing machine was not connected, pipe adrift,and that the pipe from the ground stop tap to the home stop tap was in fact a gas pipe, obviously run out of the correct water pipe. The underneath is now dry but it seems since then we have developed a horrid smell in the on-suite, I can only describe as like cat pee. Another plumber went under the home and suggests that the pipe work is not correctly installed and he is booked to do rework. Something like all outlets are in series to the main outlet pipe. We have been waiting for this work to be done for 2 months now, the site owners won't escalate to another plumber and says we just have to wait.
The home does not as far as I am aware have any air admittance valve and both plumber say they are not required.
Please as anyone any thoughts as to why we are now getting this smell after 5 months of nothing.
Its just very unpleasant sleeping next to the on-suite and i'm sure not healthy.
Regards
