Get matched with top glass and mirror pros in Wibaux, MT

If you have a small damaged mirror, chances are it’s better to replace it, as the repair will average around $200, and replacement could cost around the same price. If you’re working with a large mirror—like one over a bathroom vanity or a large floor mirror—or an antique mirror, it’s often more affordable to repair it. Large mirrors can cost hundreds of dollars, and depending on the type of repair you need, you’ll spend just $50 to $200 fixing it, ultimately saving you some money. Antique mirrors might be priceless, so a repair might be the only option.

There is no blanket number when it comes to glass thickness for soundproofing. Thicker glass does help reduce noise, but it’s only part of the solution. Most single-pane windows use glass that’s ⅛” to ¼” thick. While increasing the thickness can cut down on sound, the real noise-blocking power comes from stacking layers. Double—and triple-pane windows are far more effective for soundproofing. The combination of mass and separation breaks up sound waves better than thick glass could on its own.

Yes, you can replace just one pane of glass in a sliding glass door, but you may need to contact the door manufacturer directly to get the proper dimensions of the pane. It’s also worth checking your door’s warranty, as various parts may be covered for a particular timeframe, so you may not have to pay for the replacement pane. But consider the condition of the rest of the door. If the door is old or in bad shape, replacing the entire door is probably more cost-effective.

The cost to remove a mirrored wall from your home ranges between $100 and $3,300, though the average price is only $500. You can save money by doing it yourself, but make sure you have safety equipment such as goggles and gloves, as well as the proper tools (drywall knife, wire saw, and a plastic sheet or tarp to cover the floor).
