Hi,
I live in a victorian mid terrace with suspended wood floors. At the front where the water main comes in, who ever has done it has just cut a hole in the sub floor, into the soil, and pulled the pipe through.
The soil smells damp and spreads through the house. Any one got any ideas what I can fill the hole with to stop the smell?
I want to try use whatever they used down there in the past, when the house was built. As it seems that the more I look into defects with the house theyre mainly caused by modern methods not letting the house breathe etc.
Any help greatly appreciated!
