Any ideas what we can use on our smelling toilet? We dont seem to have any problems with it flushing and it’s not blocked but it’s a horrible soil pipe smell  I’ve tried bleach over night but it’s still there.? Thanks

I had this problem with an attic en suite and found it was it not flushing away correctly, I popped a bleach block in the cistern and always flushed twice and it got rid of it, must of still been sat in the pipework ‍♀️ I know you said yours is flushing fine but mine seemed to too but was not enough water pressure to properly get rid, might not be the same but worth a try I suppose x

@mancy6 pour down a few bowls of water after a bath. Fully flush the pipes

Have you checked the back of the pan connector to make sure it's sealed properly and for leaks

This has happened to me! I get as much water out the basin as I can then squirt a load of bleach it pushes the  down the sewer pipe! Happens all the time when my son gets constipated lol

After each visit to the loo, I spray the bowl with zoflora and overnight, I pour a capful of undiluted zoflora in the toilet.

Check that he connections at back of toilet are on properly. It may not be leaking but if anything has dislodged you can smell the soil pipes.
