This is a bit random but I’m hoping someone has some advice. This past Sunday, a pipe had to be replaced in the house I live in. Leak was coming from upstairs but of course it was my place that had to be torn open. They were finished by midday. I came back home on Monday.
There was a smell that I texted my landlord about and he said it was probably the glue and it should fade in a few days. Granted, the pipe is in the wall with little circulation, but I’m still smelling it pretty strongly! I have fans going and odor eaters everywhere and sometimes I don’t smell it too strongly but just now it seemed to just permeate the place again.
My question is: is this normal and is it ok? Will it definitely dissipate but just take a little longer being in a closed wall? I would think the plumbers knew what they were doing but it’s just concerning me. My parents are coming up tomorrow and I fear having them sleep in that room! My bedroom has been closed off (with my poor cats being sequestered in there every day). But there’s no room for all of us in there with it being small and all my stuff I moved in there from my other room....
I just don’t want this causing any harm/ problems. My anxiety has already been high as of late- I really didn’t need this. :sigh:
Thanks for any insight.
