Ugh My Basement Smells Gross Posted: 07-29-07 07:32am
I went down there to get my laundry and it
sorta smells like a backed up sewer wich
its never smelled funky down there before.
I went back and checked the other 2 rooms
though to make sure there wasnt a puddle
of icky water but nothing the smell seems
to be coming from the laundry room . I
dunno what is making it stink but it
really sucks, and not knowing why it
smells i cant make it smell better. And we
dont have septic tanks here so hmm anyone
got an ideas??

maybe sewerage is leaking baxk into your
washing machine. i had that before- it
smells so bad
that would make it smell bad? would tha
tmake my clothes smell bad? maybe i should
stick my head in the washer lol. i just
kinda looked around. i remember in base
housing in nc once our washer and toilet
got messed up and we had soap water fillin
the toilet lol. so id have to call someone
out for that i assume right? im going to
my friends later and i dont wanna come
home to a suprise lake in the basement or

yeah my washing machine kept spitting back
dirty water that was from the toilet it smelt gross and
i had to bin loads of clothes. i used to
get stale water collecting in the bottom
of the machine
i need to look in my washer, i did laundry
last night and it smells extra good,
joseph dumped out half a thing of laundry
detergent i bought for jason so i used
dirty clothes to clean it up lol. my mom
was saying it could be aburst pipe under
the floor . i will look at the washer in a
bit then i dunno see if it still stinks
tomorow since housing i dont think is open
righ tnow unless its an emergency.

Is your washing machine old? The pipes on
it can become mouldy inside which the
water runs through, it smells sort of like
bad egg.
Or could the room have damp in it
somewhere?
no our washing machine is new, our old one
kinda blew so not that long ago they
brought us a new washing machine. i just
got home from my friends but i havent been
downstairs yet lol i may wait till
tomorow, since i cant smell anything up
here so cantbe anything bad
it smelt gross and
i had to bin loads of clothes. i used to
get stale water collecting in the bottom
of the machine
