You would either have to remove the ceiling in the kitchen or the floor in the bath, and add additional joists to strengthen them, or possibly add steel in combination with the joists.

Can you put drywall mud over a peeling enamel bath ceiling?
Not and have it stay. Start by sanding the ceiling. make all necessary repairs to cracks, water damage etc. Prime the ceiling with a top quality high hiding primer... if you have water damage be sure to use a non-water based primer, I use Kilz (not kilz 2) with great results. Ten use a Kitchen/bathroom specific paint as your top coat.

How can a leaky plumbing pipe damage the ceiling?
A leaky pipeline creates water above the ceiling. This water will get absorbed by the ceiling materials, making the roof, damp and moldy. The leaks weaken the ceiling walls and can create cracks in the walls and also, the water can spread to the other walls, if the leaks are not fixed in time. The water can also create ugly stains on the walls. Hence, it is important that leaks are fixed fast before they cause huge damage to the house.
Where are stalactites found in a cave?
Stalactites are found on the ceiling of caves and are made by the dripping of water enriched with calcium, from the cracks in the ceiling. when the calcium precipitates from the water it leaves calcium and the water drops down to start the formation of stalagmites that are created in the same process but are created by the water dripping off of stalactites. :) hope this helped

Do stalactites grow up from the bottom of a cavern due to the deposit of minerals over time?
No those are stalagmites. stalactites grow from calcite (or mineral) deposits from water dripping from cracks from the ceiling. :) hope this helped
