Septic tank issues left the house smelling of raw sewage for 2 days, owner refused to compensate.
I was excited about this property, it was right where we wanted to be with our family. The check in was easy enough but that first day I noticed a garbage/sewage smell outside. I figured maybe it was a neighbors garbage and didnt think much of it. Settled my baby in only to realize there was no toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, water drinking glasses, or garbage bags etc So I ran out at 6pm to get those supplies.
The next day I noticed someone (no official uniform or truck etc) was fiddling with one of the sewer grates in the yard, by that evening the smell of raw sewage was taking over the outside and first floor but I was hoping it was maybe stink bugs or something. The next morning the smell was now upstairs and I reached out to the owner as it was obvious there was something wrong. At that time he said the town had been by to run an inspection that he had no idea about but they had passed and the smell should go away quickly..
We went about our day and when we came home that evening it was unbareable. I reached out again and he told me again it shouldn’t be smelling and to hang tight, that someone would come by the next day. I requested to be compensated for the now nearly 48 hours of headache inducing raw sewage smell taking over the whole house and he refused saying it would be fixed. We had already suffered so that wasn’t helpful? The yard was also overgrown (landscapers came the day before we left..) and the pool was filthy. 2-10 wouldn’t recommend
