My bathroom has had a smell for like 2 months now well its been like that
ever since i moved in my apartment. It has a smell that i dont really know what to compare it with. It has the smell all day it doesnt go away. It espically smells really bad after ur done taking a shower and it smells bad also when i mop the floor. I dont know where its coming from. I thought it was my shower curtains but i bought some new ones and the smell was still thier. I clean the bathroom everyday but the smell would still be in thier. I dont know what else to do!! |

Had that problem for quite a while in a house I was renting. Finally got the landlord to pony up for new sheet vinyl, and on tear-out learned that some moron had used masonite under the old stuff. Yuck. You ever smelled wet masonite? It's quite distinctive. |

Three things come to mind. 1. Leaking wax ring on the toilet 2. Leaking trap on sink, tub, or whatever else you might have in there. 3. Dead mouse or other rodent in wall, heat register, etc. (Or you fart too much) ![]() |
