"I have a very nice front door complete with carvings. The door is in three parts: The part you open, the glass door with wood frame in front of it and the side section of the door that is built into the house. Wesley from Mr. Handyman completed the job over the course of four separate days. This happened because Mr. Handyman had not counted on the job taking as long as it did and Wesley was scheduled to work elsewhere. He began by removing the glass from the wood frame and sanded it. I had unfortunately let the door go for too long, so the sanding required some work. I discovered that the bottom of the frame had a lot of wood rot. Wesley replaced the old wood at the bottom with ash, a wood that is far less likely to rot. He also coated it with something to protect it. He moved on to the front door and then the side section, sanding and staining everything. In addition, a little bit of the stain did not dry properly because it "bubbled," making it turn a sort of transparent white. He came back on the fourth day to correct that, spending around an hour and a half on the project, carefully scraping those sections with a razor. I was prepared to pay him for the fourth day, but he said that I owed him nothing because the bubbling was not my fault. If offered to pay him something anyway, but he declined my offer. The result is beautiful. I have an average house, but I told him the door looks like it belongs on an expensive house. I give Wesley highest recommendation. He's honest; he does a great job; he's there on time and he's pleasant."

For small, non-pressure-related cracks, you can fix them using two-part epoxy. This spares you the cost and hassle of replacing the glass. Simply clean the surface and remove any debris or dirt, wait for the glass to dry, then spread an even layer of mixed epoxy solution over the crack. You can use a putty knife or rubber spatula to push the epoxy into the crack.
Whether it's better to repair or replace a broken mirror depends on its size, value, and the extent of the damage. For small, inexpensive mirrors, replacement is often the better choice, as the average repair cost of around $200 can be close to the price of a new one. However, for large mirrors—like those over a bathroom vanity or large floor mirrors—repair is usually more cost-effective. A new large mirror can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, while repairs typically range from $50 to $200. You should also consider the mirror's age and sentimental value. Antique mirrors and family heirlooms are often priceless and irreplaceable, making repair the most sensible or only option.
The methods outlined here are intended for surface scratches—ones that don’t cut into the glass very deeply. For deep scratches, you should consider a more comprehensive glass scratch repair kit. These kits come with abrasives, polishing compounds, and specialized tools designed for removing deep scratches from glass. If you feel uncomfortable tackling a deep scratch on your own, consider calling a local glass repair contractor.
Yes, you can resilver old mirrors without any issues, and in many cases, it’s is the only way to maintain and preserve old, antique mirrors. Resilvering involves stripping the old silver off of the mirror, replacing the silver, and adding a protective backing to the glass. The process costs around $15 per square foot of glass, making it a relatively inexpensive solution for making older mirrors functional again. You can buy a DIY resilvering kit, but we strongly recommend hiring a professional to avoid additional damage and mistakes.
While finding your mirror cracked can be spooky, there are actually many logical and common reasons why this happens. First, the mirror may have been mounted unevenly in the first place. Over time, poor mounting leads to stress points that will eventually cause a mirror to crack. Other common causes of a mirror spontaneously cracking include dramatic temperature shifts, strong thunder or a loud crash somewhere in the distance, exposure to heat and sunlight, and an uneven wall in your home. It's also possible that your mirror had a manufacturing defect or microscopic cracks that occurred during glass cutting or handling that eventually caused it to shatter.
