Description
There is a sewage smell coming from my drains. To the point it makes my whole apartment smell. The smell comes and goes. There is also an odor outside that is strongest near the drains. I imagine this is due to a back up in the sewer itself. I contacted Georgetown apartment management and was told to contact the city. I have spoken with multiple neighbors, and they all have the same thing in their apartments. Folks across the street are also affected along N. Hamilton St. because the smell comes and goes It seems strongest in the morning when people are getting ready for work and then when they’re also coming home at the end of their day and using the plumbing.
