Just bought our first house!
Our ceiling paint began to peel in the kitchen right where the shower is upstairs. Where some of the paint peeled, I noticed black spots that appear to be mold. The shower is all tile and pretty old. Where do I even begin to fix this? My husband loves to do projects and prefers to not call a plumber. Is this too big of a job for a novice?

You must first figure out exactly what's leaking. Remove the strainer and stuff rags down the drain to stop it up. (Make it one large rag so it doesn't get lost down the drain.)
Now fill the base with a few inches of water ad let it set for a couple of hours. Check for fresh moisture on the ceiling . Let me know the results. Good luck. Tom
