Mirror hung level and secure using proper fixings for your wall type. Whether it's a lightweight bathroom mirror or a heavy hallway piece, it'll stay put and look straight.
### No More Wonky Mirrors
Ever hung a mirror yourself and spent 20 minutes getting it level, only to find it's crooked again the next day? **Proper hanging makes all the difference.**
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Most mirrors come with those terrible wire hangers or keyhole fixings. I often replace these with D-rings or proper French cleats for heavy mirrors - much more secure and easier to get level.

### Why Wall Type Matters
Here's what most people don't realise: **the wall matters more than the mirror weight.**
| ✅ Done Right | ❌ Done Wrong | |--------------|---------------| | Correct fixings for wall type | Same plastic plugs for everything | | Load distributed properly | Single point of failure | | Tested before letting go | "Seems solid enough" | | Level checked multiple times | Eyeballed and hoped for best |
Different fixings for different walls: - **Solid brick/block:** Heavy-duty plugs and screws - **Plasterboard:** Spring toggles or metal cavity anchors - **Stud walls:** Screwed directly into timber studs where possible - **Old lath and plaster:** Special fixings that don't crack the plaster

What to Expect
### Step 1: Position & Check We hold the mirror up where you want it, check the height and position, make sure it'll be level. No drilling until you're happy. ### Step 2: Fix Securely I drill carefully (protecting your floor from dust), fit the right fixings for your wall type, and mount the mirror properly. ### Step 3: Test & Verify Before I leave, I actually test it can hold the weight. You shouldn't be worrying if it's going to fall off at 3am.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Multiple rooms?** Got mirrors for bathroom, bedroom and hallway? Do them all in one visit. I'm already there with the full kit and you'll save on the callout. **Old Exeter houses?** Those thick stone walls are actually brilliant for heavy mirrors - once you're through the plaster, the fixings are rock solid. The opposite of the problem most people expect. **Changed your mind about position?** Call me back. I can patch the old holes with filler (you can paint over) and remount it. Happens more than you'd think - rooms look different once the mirror's actually up.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mirror hanging in Honiton
What's the biggest mirror you can hang?
I've hung mirrors up to 2 metres wide - size isn't usually the issue, it's the weight. As long as I can get the right fixings into your wall type, pretty much any mirror can go up safely. I'll assess your wall and advise honestly if there's a problem.
Can you hang a heavy mirror on plasterboard?
Yes - that's exactly where most people worry. I use proper plasterboard fixings (like spring toggles or metal anchors) that spread the load. A 20kg mirror on hollow plasterboard? No problem with the right fixings. I won't just use those flimsy plastic plugs.
Do I need to buy the mirror fixings myself?
No need - I carry a range of fixings for different wall types and weights. Once I see your mirror and wall, I'll use whatever's appropriate. It's all included in the price.
How long does it take to hang a mirror?
Usually 30-45 minutes for a standard mirror. Heavy ones or tricky positions might take closer to an hour. If you've got multiple mirrors to hang in one visit, we can do them together and save time.
What if I don't like where it ends up?
We'll agree the position before I drill anything. I'll hold it up, we'll step back and check, then mark it. If you later decide you want it moved, just call - I can patch the old holes and rehang it elsewhere.
