    Smell in rental property

    I moved into a Grade II listed rental in March and soon noticed an odour on the staircase/landing near the bathroom, like dirty public toilets. The agent and maintenance said they couldn’t smell it, but told me to report back if I found the source. I explained: no blocked or overflowing drains outside, no external drain smell, the odour is isolated to the landing, worse in rain or wind, and not solved by keeping plugs in bath/sink. I also noted I can’t see an external soil/stink pipe, which may be relevant. I’ve tried a HEPA purifier, air fresheners (make it worse), charcoal bags, and odour sprays, with no success. My concern is that sewage gases are escaping into the loft or house. Am I overlooking something, or being dismissed by the agent?
