Sometimes a sewage or stagnant type smell can emanate from a sink or plug hole, especially if the water draining away is warm. This indicates a possible blockage or build-up of waste materials, making the drinking water appear as if it has an unpleasant smell. Filling a glass with water, taking it into a different room (away from the kitchen sink) and then smelling it, may help to determine whether the odour is genuinely from the water or not.
If the water still smells, please contact the water undertaker immediately.
