Hi, we just bought an upstairs maisonette (Enter own door and go up stairs then into living room). There is an awful smell at the top of the stairs and into the living room. It has now been there for >2 months. We have lifted the carpets and removed wallpaper of the walls and there is nothing left but the structure of the building (plasterboard walls and concrete floors).
It is a musty smell but there is no mould and it is not near any sewer pipes (the bathroom has been gutted as we are replacing and there is no smell in there).
We are stumped as to what might be causing the smell - any ideas on what it is or how to remove it would be welcome!
