damp smell
hi all
noticed a damp smell from our bathroom last week ... after a lot of sniffing I discovered that there was a tiny leak from our boxed cistern which had seeped under the vinyl floor covering, swollen the hardboard and made about 1m2 of floorboards wet. I checked the other side of the bathroom wall, but the damp hadn't spread under the wall. Have replaced damp floorboards, hardboard and vinyl, but can still catch a whiff of a damp smell from that corner ... all fabrics have been removed and washed, and the tiles scrubbed down .... Anyone have any suggestions as to what could be holding the smell. |
