Bathroom question

Sorry TMI but my bathroom/toilet smells like urine no matter what I do and need a solution!

I have a cleaning person and I clean it every few days myself. I use bleach, soft scrub, scouring powder etc and scrub clean as much as I can but there is still a strong odor. I clean all around the toilet and there are no males in the house!

Do I need to replace the entire toilet? This has been going on for years. I feel like in certain weather conditions like humid days it could be worse.

Re: Bathroom question

You wax seal under your toilet may need to be replaced.
If it's compromised, odors can seep out.
It's an easy and cheap fix
Have someone come take a look at it. I would imagine a plumber

Re: Bathroom question

do you have a window that you can keep open?

Sometimes old toilets have tiny leaks you can’t see- so maybe replacing the toilet would be a good idea.

or try a professional grade enzime cleaner. im sure there are recipes to make your own at home as well

Clean around where the screws are that hold seat in place. Urine can seep under those caps that cover them. Also under and around base of toilet.
