Small mold spot in hard to reach area...WWYD?
Recently I noticed a water spot on my popcorn ceiling, directly below the upstairs shower/tub. Today I made a small 1/4" hole to get my boroscope up there to confirm whether I had a small problem or big problem. Thankfully the problem was clear and the fix was fairly easy. Now I need to decide what, if anything, to do about the small mold patch I observed while exploring with the boroscope. It's hard to judge scale with the camera, but I'd estimate it's about 1 square foot in size. I'd like to avoid opening a large hole in the ceiling because the popcorn is so difficult to patch. Any suggestions for applying a mold cleaner in this scenario? Would anyone say to just leave it be and let it clear itself up? See my link below for a video from the boroscope, as well as a photo of the ceiling water spot. The infared photo shows immediately following a hot shower, with the drain pipe clearly visible in the vertical section, and the hot spot in the ceiling where the drip was occurring. https://imgur.com/a/io6yldF submitted by /u/noced [link] [comments]
