conservatory smell

[TRACEYO]

My conservatory was built nearly a year ago, for the past few months it has been smelling horrible, rather earthy. Firstly I got rid of a large plant in there, but the smell is just as strong without it. I have used a de-humidifyer and it helps a little. Should it be necessary to use one of these? Can anyone solve the mystery? Please help!!!! Tracey

Try bicarb of soda to help with the smell , but you really need to find the source , have you laid the foundations on the drainage ?

hi could you tell me if you have laminate flooring if so its proberbly that. if you laid the laminate shortly after the conservatory was built chances are the base wasnt dry and has rotted you laminate hense the smell let me know how you get on. kennyla
