Approximately one month ago, I was called out to investigate a sewer odor coming from underneath the kitchen sink. After a thorough inspection, I discovered an abandoned PVC waste arm that had not been properly capped off. This open pipe was allowing sewer gases to escape into the space beneath the sink, causing the odor. To resolve the issue, I cut the line back and sealed it using a Fernco cap. This effectively stopped the sewer odor, and the area remained odor-free following the repair. Recently, the customer reported that they were still experiencing a sewer smell in the same area.

Upon conducting a series of tests, we found that despite the customer’s concerns, the stoppage no longer appeared active. All of our tests indicated normal flow, and it seems the stoppage may have cleared on its own. However, we did assess the condition of the pipes and noted that they are not in optimal condition, with indications of extensive buildup. While the immediate issue seems resolved, there may be potential for future blockages if the buildup is left unaddressed. Additionally, during our visit, the homeowner informed us of a bathroom sink draining slowly. Based on our initial assessment, this may be caused by typical buildup common in bathroom sinks. We will provide separate estimates for both the toilet line service and the bathroom sink drain service.
