Understand the pattern
It matters whether the smell is localised, affects several floors or coincides with water use, rainfall or certain times of day. This helps define the inspection but does not replace checking the affected area.

Unpleasant odours in communal areas
We investigate unpleasant odours in entrances, courtyards, garages and other shared spaces. We check drains, drainage stacks, inspection chambers and ventilation according to the signs, to identify the source and agree the work needed.

What we can assess
A proposal suited to the installation
Drainage and connections
We assess accessible drainage points, connections, stacks and inspection chambers. Cleaning, a repair or more extensive work is agreed according to the findings.
Ventilation of the space
Where relevant, the relationship with fresh-air supply and extraction is considered too. Adding an extractor or masking the smell is not proposed as an automatic solution without assessing its source.
The issue
When to contact us
- A smell returning near a drain or inspection chamber.
- Similar reports from several floors.
- Persistent odours in garages or plant rooms.

Before the visit
Information that helps
- The locations and floors affected, when it began and how often it occurs.
- Any observed link with rain, water use or equipment operation.
- Previous drain clearance, repairs and access to the affected spaces.
If you suspect a gas leak or a strong smell makes you unwell, move away and contact the emergency services. This form is not an emergency channel.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does an unpleasant smell mean there is a blockage?
Not necessarily. Different parts of the drainage or ventilation system may need checking. The action is decided after the issue has been assessed.
Is drain clearance or cleaning every chamber included?
Not automatically. Access, affected points, materials and equipment are assessed before the work is agreed.
Should we open chambers or use products before the visit?
There is no need. Describe where and when the smell occurs without opening enclosed spaces or mixing products. Preparing an enquiry should not introduce a risk.
