I'm planning to fit a wall mirror in a new bathroom - the space for it

possible supplier of a mirror cut to size? (I'm in London)
Sorry, not my town. But you'll probably have to go round several
glaziers before you find one that actually wants the work - many of
them no longer cut glass on spec like this, especially not if you want
a good ground edge.
Mirrors need to be bathroom grade, but then most of the mirror in the
retail trade is anyway. It's no longer foiled, it's now a plastic film
and it's cheaper to carry just one grade in stock.
Ikea are cheaper on mirrors than cutting to size, or even on the price
for the raw glass. If you want edge grinding, then they're _much_
cheaper.
Heater pads are available, if you want it posh. Can't remember the
URL, but I found some on-line sellers for them last time I looked.
I'm not anticipating it being a hard job to fit it - using a thin
spread of adhesive.
Use the right stuff (Screwfix do it). Some normal adhesives can
damage the silvering.
