Mirrors taken down from walls safely - no smashing, no wall damage. Either removed for disposal or carefully packed if you're taking them to the new house.
### Don't Risk Smashing A Big Mirror
You've decided those **massive bathroom mirrors** aren't coming to the new house. They're glued to the tiles and you've got no idea how to get them off without destroying everything.
Don't just **attack them with a pry bar**. That's how you end up with broken mirrors, cracked tiles, and a seven-year bad luck streak.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** If you're selling the house, check with the buyers before removing mirrors - some fixtures count as part of the sale and legally have to stay.

Good to Know
> ⚠️ **Glued mirrors:** If a mirror's stuck with adhesive, there's always risk of tile or plaster damage when removing it. I'll be as careful as possible but can't guarantee zero damage. Sometimes it's worth leaving them if you're selling. **Selling your house?** Check your contract - some fixtures and fittings (including mirrors over a certain size) might be legally part of the sale. Don't remove them without checking. **Mirror disposal:** Regular household waste won't take large mirrors. They need to go to recycling centre. I can take them for you as part of the job. **Refitting elsewhere:** If you want the mirrors taken to your new house and refitted there, book both jobs together - more efficient and I can pack them appropriately for transport. **Wall condition after:** I'll fill and patch, but for perfect finish you'll want to paint after. Large mirrors often leave a different colored patch where they protected the wall from light.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mirror removal in Sidmouth
Why not just take mirrors down myself?
You can, if they're small and you're confident. But large or heavy mirrors are awkward, risky to break, and if they're glued or have hidden fixings, you can damage the wall badly trying to get them off. I do it safely without smashing anything.
What if the mirror is glued to the wall?
Some bathroom mirrors are stuck direct to tiles with adhesive. I can remove those carefully using the right techniques, but there's always some risk to the tiles. I'll be honest about what's possible before I start.
Can you patch the walls after?
Yes - I'll fill any holes from screws or fixings, patch any marks, and leave it ready for redecorating. It won't be decorator-perfect but it'll be neat and ready for paint.
I want to take the mirrors to my new house - can you pack them safely?
I can take them down and wrap them for transport. If you're moving soon, I can coordinate removal here and refitting at the new place - probably more efficient to do it all together.
What do you do with mirrors I don't want?
I can take them to the tip for you - saves you loading a big awkward mirror into your car. Included in the price if you want them gone.
