I have a 105 yr old house downtown in colorado springs. I have lived in it for over 15yrs. The foundation has always been on the "move", but the last 3 months it is in a race to fall down! All the old plumbing is gone and new was installed...inbound and outbound. The only old plumbing is the roof vent and we hook up to the clay 4" drain at the base of the house. I have had the water lines tested, no leaks. The problem they found is "internal inspection of 4" drain line and identified negative slope below cleanout. Unable to camera past this point." I do not have any overflow or backup issues. I live alone so my water use is not high. What is the smell in my home? I do not have any cats, but kitty litter is the best description of the odor. It seems like the house is falling apart, and all I have done is work on this house for the last 15yrs. It is not lacking any attention. The house has got to be moving so drasticly and quickly due to water...but I cannot find the leak and can hardly stand the smell anymore. I have hired an engineer and the soil test have yet to give much information. The did remodel the hospital 3 blocks away, on the same street as I live. They did put new sewer and water lines in at the hospitial, but only 2 blocks of new...the old lines are still in front of my home. My neighbour said his house was not moving out of the ordinary and did not stink! Any ideas?
