Persistent sewer smell in a bathroom is more than just an inconvenience — it’s usually a sign of a hidden plumbing issue. During this inspection, our team uncovered a damaged cast-iron drain line inside the wall. The pipe had deteriorated to the point of cracking, allowing sewer gases to escape and moisture to seep into the framing.
