I have a problem that I'm going to try to explain here. I'm no plumber by any means other that minor repairs.
My house is shaped like a horse shoe with a concrete patio in the middle of the two sides in the back. One side of the house has almost all the plumbing and sewage on it two bathrooms, kitchen and washroom with the exception of one bathroom on the other side that in very rarely used. All of the sewage vents that go through the roof are on the back side of the house and on the inside of the horse shoe where they are not visible from the street. When the wind is just right there is a strong sewage odor on the patio. I guess my question is this, Could this odor be coming from these vent pipes or could I have a sewage leak some where. There are no wet areas around the perimeter of the house that I can find. The house is built on a slab.
