How to Remove a Bathroom Mirror

Bathroom mirrors are an essential part of any bathroom, but they can also be a pain to remove. If you're planning to replace your bathroom mirror, or if you need to remove it for cleaning or repairs, follow these steps to do it safely and easily.

Gather Your Tools

Before you start, gather the following tools:

Flathead screwdriver
Phillips head screwdriver
Putty knife
Razor blade
Gloves
Safety glasses

Prepare the Area

Once you have your tools, prepare the area around the mirror by removing any objects that could get in your way. Clear the counter and floor space around the mirror, and cover the floor with a drop cloth to protect it from any falling glass.

Disconnect the Electricity

If your bathroom mirror has any electrical components, such as a light or a defogger, be sure to turn off the power at the circuit breaker before you start working.

Remove the Mirror Clips

most bathroom mirrors are held in place by clips that are attached to the wall. To remove the mirror, you need to first remove the clips. Use a flathead screwdriver to pry the clips away from the wall. Be careful not to damage the wall or the mirror.

Lift the Mirror Off the Wall

Once the clips are removed, you can lift the mirror off the wall. Be careful not to drop the mirror, as it can be heavy. If the mirror is large or heavy, you may want to ask for help from a friend or family member.

Clean the Wall

Once the mirror is removed, you can clean the wall where it was mounted. Use a damp cloth to wipe away any dirt or debris. If there is any adhesive residue left on the wall, you can use a putty knife to scrape it off.
