Sewer smell in bathroom
Hi we have 3 bathrooms upstairs, two of them are next to each other, one has a shower and the other has a shower over the bath. Recently all our sinks and showers have started gurgling and when we use the shower next to the bathroom there is a smell that comes from the bath plughole. When we run the tap it instantly goes and does not smell again until the shower is used again. If both showers are used together there is also no smell. We have tried unblocking gels etc but nothing works.

It sounds to me that the baths and sinks have been installed without a (trap) this is a fitting that prevents smells,if a trap isn’t present then smelly water can also bubble up from the plug holes

It's air inside of the plumbing system and all the water that is in there for long time will smell it for sure,but if you take bit of time 2 in 2 days for 10 minutes open up all taps and live water running ,that smell will disappear for good
