Okay, I came home from work last week and smelled something really gross coming from my basement...went down and couldn't find the source - there were no leaky pipes, ect. I then peered into this toilet area that we have and never use (in the basement) and there was no water in the toilet so I thought that I should put water in it to see if maybe that was the problem....so I added water to the toilet and overnight the smell seemed to disappear. Now I am catching wiffs of the smell in different places such as under the kitchen sink and walking downstairs to the basement, above my head, right at the base of the upstairs - coming from the wood or something.....Any ideas before I spend tons on a plumber? BTW, I had my main line replaced less than a year ago. Thanks!
