Bathroom Mirrors

Cleaning your bathroom mirror is quick and easy. You will need glass cleaner, white vinegar, water, a soft lint-free cloth or microfibre cloth and (optionally) an old newspaper. After dusting your mirror to get rid of any loose debris, use an even spray of either commercial cleaner or a homemade natural solution (of white vinegar and water) over the mirror's surface. Wipe the mirror in a gentle, circular motion, keeping an eye out for any built-up scum. To keep your bathroom mirror sparkling clean, wipe it down regularly using a dry cloth or a quick spritz of glass cleaner as needed.

Your bathroom mirror can certainly be bigger than your vanity, and it is a design choice commonly used to enhance the aesthetics and functionality of the space. A larger mirror can create a focal point in the bathroom, making the space feel more open and expansive. It also lets you see more of your face and body - so if you get ready in the bathroom, that's something to consider.

The height that your bathroom mirror should be hung depends on things like the height of the users and the vanity or sink it will be placed above. As a general guideline, the centre of the mirror should be positioned at eye level for the average user.

Tiling behind a bathroom mirror is not common because mirrors are usually hung on the wall, and the tiles are installed around the mirror. The mirror itself is typically not directly attached to the tiled surface. When installing a bathroom mirror, it's standard to leave the area behind the mirror tile-free and use the tiles to create a border or frame around the mirror. This creates a clean and finished look, with the mirror serving as a focal point on the tiled wall.
