I'm planning to fit a wall mirror in a new bathroom - the space for it
to fill is approximately 1400mmx1400mm. Can anyone recommend a
possible supplier of a mirror cut to size? (I'm in London)

I'm not anticipating it being a hard job to fit it - using a thin
spread of adhesive. However, if anyone reading this knows better or
has any lessons learnt the hard way, then I'm open to other advice!

With many thanks,

Any glass merchant should be able to supply this and polish the edges for
you. Bevelled might look nice too. How about an anti-condensation heater
to stop it misting up. Not sure if you can buy these but an interesting
DIY project.

I hope you have a beautiful body ... some of our guests won't look at the
large bathroom mirror we have!

How do you know? Do you follow them into the bathroom or is it a one of
those mirrors that allows you to observe them from the bedroom?

LOL! They tell me :-)

And I avert my own eyes when I get out of the bath ...

Spouse however, he of the body perfect, never even bothers to look.

On something that size I'd think about screwing it to the wall rather using
adhesives. I saw today that B&Q do a range of mirrors pre-drilled for that
very purpose.

The back of a mirror is literally coated in silvered paint, so adhesives
have a tendency to make this peel off after a time, which is not the best
thing to happen with a piece of glass that size. Even glues that say they
are intended for mirrors do the same, especially in a room which has high
moisture content in the air and can create condensation on the back of
mirror if not sealed properly.

Have you had a look at polished chrome or acrylic mirrors ? They would be
ideal for this situation.

Any glass merchant will be able to supply you. tell them it is for a
bathroom and they will foil back it to prevent condensation lifting
the silver. much cheaper than you will ever get from a DIY shop.

Just as another idea - have you considered the option of mirror tiles
rather than one dirty great mirror?

Flabeg make kits for hanging mirrors invisibly in a way that makes
them removeable. These consist of metal plates which can be screwed
on the wall with matching attachments for glueing to the back of the
mirror.
However you do it, you will need to check that the wall is
adequately flat - a lot of walls are remarkably uneven!

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.
