Client Case Study: Solving a Sewer Smell Mystery in Bundall
Introduction: Meet Alexis, a homeowner from the suburb of Bundall (4217). She recently noticed a bad sewer smell coming from her upstairs ensuite and was at a loss for what could be causing it. After doing some research, she came across Reactive Plumbing & Electrical through our Gold Coast Magnet ad.
Assigned Technician: Our experienced technician Khaine was assigned to the job due to his expertise in plumbing and previous success with similar issues.
The Job Description & Solution: Upon arrival at Alexis’ home, Khaine began investigating the source of the sewer smell. He started by removing the toilet as originally quoted for, but upon further inspection found that the rubber had been pinched and not installed correctly. This was causing the sewer smell to come up through that pipe from the toilet.
To solve this issue, Khaine reinstalled a vario bend to properly seal off any potential leaks. He also made sure to thoroughly seal all outlets before reinstalling the toilet and testing it out. As an extra precaution, he advised Alexis not to use her toilet for 24 hours while allowing time for silicone curing.
