To ask how to remove the smell of wee from bathroom flooring.

[WhatsWhat456]

Replacing the flooring is not an option or I would 100% do it, I have even offered to pay for the replacement. HA house, downstairs loo is a wet room but not in use or ever been in use as a wet room as far as I know. No shower fitted just a plate where one can be attacked if ever needed all plumbing and electrics are present in the wall. House is 3 years old I've lived here nearly 18 months and inherented the wee smell from the last tenant. It smells like the men's toilet at the pub and is absolutely vile. As soon as the door is open the smell hits you in the face it's so strong you can smell it in the whole downstairs when the door is opened. The window has been removed and that wall tiled over so no fresh air, I run the extractor fan 24/7 which does help slightly but I want/need to remove the smell, so plesse hit me with your best suggestions I will try anything at this point.

That's so odd. I've lived in HA for years and only need to ask permission for structural changes. I ripped up that nasty vinyl as soon as I moved in. Recently had an inspection and was complimented on my lino. I'd rip it up and replace if and when you move out.

Just speak to HA and tell them. Yanbu.
It's either trapped somewhere or absorbed into something.
Dont it twice a day. Get a professional out, even a cleaning company might advise?

@Mypathtriedtokillme Yes I wondered about that too. OP said The drain is next to the toilet but is covered with a metal plate

I wonder if the solution would be to get Housing Association to replace the metal plate with some form of grate, to allow air to circulate, and pour in some water
