    Don't know how to find where sewer odor is coming from.
    I live in a 1996 single wide mobile home with two full baths. When the mobile was moved onto our property, one end bottomed out a little and several pipes were broken. We thought we had fixed all the broken or cracked pipes, but we still have a horrible sewer odor whenever the washer drains or the showers are used. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to find the leak? We've already tried everything that we know of to fix it. We are very frustrated and welcome any suggestions. Thanks a million.

    Any wet spots coming through the under coating? One or two bathrooms? How many vent pipes do you have comoing out of the roof? Back to you, Tom
