Hi everyone,
I have a quick question I was hoping you could give me some advice on.
I recently (2 months ago) moved into a new construction condo and over the last month or so have, every so often, had had a horrible sewage smell coming from the master bath.
I've sniffed around and searched for the origin of the smell and from the best of my knowledge it is coming from the base of the toilet. It is hard to explain, but the toilet is backed against the wall and (as you'll see in the attached picture) there is a back area that I believe is unsealed and thus causing the problem.
The weird thing is though that we've found that if we run the shower the smell will most (not all but most) of the time go away.
I've had a the developer's plumber out two times and of course they have done nothing besides say I might just need to run water every time the smell comes (definitely not a solution) so I figured I'd put the question out here to see if you had any insight.
I've provided two pictures. The first is for reference to show where on the toilet the second picture is coming from. Thank you for any help!
John
