    Sewage smell in house
    We live in a mobile home park and recently there was a pipe in our yard running from the septic tank. Well that pipe was backing up and sewage was coming out of it, like feces and toilet paper. They recently came and "fixed" the problem and the pipe that was sticking up out of the ground is now gone so I don't know if they took it out or just buried it. Ever since this was done we have an awful sewage smell coming from our bathroom every time the toilet is flushed or the sink and toilet are used. Our neighbor who is on the same tank said that his toilet is now gurgling. Could that pipe that has disappeared be causing our problem?

    Do you hear any bubbles gurgles when you flush or drain? Back to you, Tom
