Top Mirror Repair related questions

There are several benefits. For a start, you can book from anywhere on a device with internet access. You also don’t have to go to the trouble of finding a mirror repair specialist, as available Taskers will send you offers once you post a task. You can even find a Tasker for complex jobs, like resilvering a mirror that you’d prefer to restore instead of throwing away.

No, you’re not expected to supply any tools. Taskers are experienced professionals who come prepared with the necessary tools and equipment to do the job. However, if you have specific tools you believe could help, you are welcome to offer them.

The time it takes to repair a mirror depends on the Tasker’s speed and the complexity of the job. A simple task, like removing a small scratch or filling in a small crack, can often take less than an hour. More complex jobs like resilvering a mirror can take a day or two, as drying the new silver or aluminium layer can take several hours on its own.

Yes! If you carry out mirror repairs yourself or run a business offering this service, you can hire Taskers to assist. You might need help as part of a larger project, such as furniture repair, window and door repairs, or even a bathroom renovation. Hiring a Tasker can help you take on more jobs than you or your team can manage. To avoid any confusion, be clear in your task description about what you need the Tasker to do.

That depends on the severity of the damage. It’s often possible to repair superficial scratches, cloudy smudges and small cracks. However, if the mirror has too many breaks or shards, it’s better to replace it. If the damage is minor, you can fix the mirror yourself with a shop-bought repair kit or hire a repair specialist to do it for you.

That depends. In the past, a damaged mirror would simply be thrown out. These days, however, small cracks, scratches or cloudy smudges can often be repaired. Before you get rid of it, it’s a good idea to have a repair specialist inspect the mirror first. They can let you know if it can be restored, which could save you the money and hassle of buying and installing a new one.

What does a mirror repair service include?

Your mirror repair service includes a general assessment of the issue, recommendations, and a fix (if appropriate). This applies to bathroom mirrors, wardrobe mirrors, and sometimes even car mirrors. Here are some of the most common mirror repairs:

Re-hanging

If your mirror has fallen down from its usual wall, wardrobe, or dresser drawer position, you’ll need to get it re-hung. Your repair person will check the mirror to ensure it’s still in good condition before cleaning the back, as well as the surface for mounting. They’ll remove any adhesive and ensure the surface is dry. Then they’ll re-apply fresh adhesive (using the suitable weight limit) before mounting your mirror back onto the surface. Depending on the surface, they may finish off the edges with silicone to create an even stronger bond.

Mirror crack repair

Your handyman will use a glass repair kit to repair minor cracks and restore your mirror’s finish. They’ll start by cleaning the area with a damp cloth to ensure no dirt or debris. Next, they’ll apply an adhesive stabiliser film to cover the crack. Then they’ll fill a syringe with resin before inserting this into the crack underneath the stabiliser, filling up the crack. Once this has properly set, they’ll remove the film and apply additional resin on top. Once everything has dried again your handyman will gently scrape the surface with a blade to smooth it out, before cleaning away any dust from the resin.

Mirror rot and black edges

Some mirrors are prone to turning black around the edges - especially in moist areas like bathrooms. This happens when protective coatings are worn away and the moisture reacts with the exposed silver nitrate on the back of your mirror. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to clean or fix this issue. But on the plus side, it usually just happens around the edges of the mirror, which means the best fix is to add a frame over the top. Your mirror repair person can help recommend a mirror frame that’s the right width and style for your bathroom, then install it to cover up any black marks.
