Customized Quality Mirrors with Gatsby Glass

Mirror Services in Dallas, TX

Mirrors do far more than reflect—they open up rooms, enhance natural and artificial light, and bring balance to a finished space. Gatsby Glass of East Dallas provides professional mirror design, fabrication, and installation for homes throughout Dallas. From bathroom vanity mirrors and full wall installations to gyms, closets, and decorative feature walls, every mirror is measured, cut, and installed with precision so it looks intentional and performs long term.

Each project begins with a site evaluation to ensure the mirror fits cleanly around lighting, outlets, tile edges, and backsplashes. We manage the entire process, including glass selection, thickness recommendations, edgework, safety options, and a clean installation that elevates the room rather than feeling like an afterthought.

To start planning your mirror project, call (972) 430-4390 and speak with our local team.

Custom Mirror Installation in Dallas: What to Expect

Full-Service Design and Installation

Our mirror services cover every step, from concept to final install. We help you choose the right mirror style for your space, whether that’s a frameless vanity mirror, a full-height closet mirror, a gym wall mirror, or a decorative accent piece.

Precision Measuring and Clean Fit

Accurate measurement is critical for a polished result. We account for wall variation, tile alignment, fixtures, and mounting surfaces so the mirror sits flat and aligns properly with surrounding elements. The result is a mirror that looks custom-built for your home.

Custom Mirror Installation Cost in Dallas

What Influences Pricing

Mirror installation costs vary based on several factors, including:

  • Mirror size and thickness

  • Edge finishing (seamed, polished, or beveled)

  • Cutouts for outlets or sconces

  • Safety backing or tempered glass upgrades

  • Mounting method and wall condition

  • Removal of existing mirrors

Larger mirrors often reduce the effective cost per square foot, while smaller or highly customized pieces may increase it due to fabrication and labor requirements. Specialty mirrors such as antique or LED backlit designs typically carry a premium.

We provide clear, itemized estimates after confirming measurements and installation conditions so you understand exactly what’s included.

Choosing the Right Mirror Thickness

Best Thickness for Bathroom Mirrors

For most bathroom remodels, 1/4-inch mirror glass is a popular choice because it offers rigidity, reduced distortion, and a high-end feel—especially for wide or tall vanity mirrors. Thicker glass also provides cleaner edges for frameless designs.

When Thinner or Specialty Options Make Sense

Smaller mirrors or framed designs may allow for thinner glass, but wall flatness and long-term durability are always considered. In moisture-prone bathrooms, we also evaluate whether safety backing or tempered glass is appropriate based on placement and usage.

How to Measure for a Custom Wall Mirror

Measuring Basics

Proper measuring helps avoid gaps, misalignment, and costly remakes. Start by identifying the maximum available width and height, then decide on proportions that suit the wall and fixtures.

Common Measuring Tips

  • Measure width and height at multiple points to account for wall variation

  • Align mirror width with the vanity or architectural elements

  • Note the location of outlets, light fixtures, shelves, or trim

  • Decide on edgework before finalizing dimensions

For guaranteed accuracy, a professional on-site measure ensures the mirror is fabricated to fit perfectly the first time.

Standard vs. Tempered Mirror Glass and Safety Backing

Understanding Glass Options

Standard mirror glass is commonly used for bathroom vanities and performs well when properly installed. Tempered mirror glass is heat-treated for added strength and may be recommended in high-traffic areas or where additional safety is desired.

Safety Backing Considerations

Safety backing is a film applied to the rear of the mirror to help hold shards together if breakage occurs. While not always required, it’s a smart upgrade for large mirrors, homes with children, fitness areas, or tight passageways. We help you decide whether standard glass, tempered glass, safety backing, or a combination makes the most sense for your space.

Mirror Replacement, Specialty Mirrors, and Long-Term Care

Replacing Existing Wall Mirrors

Removing a glued-on mirror can be risky without the right tools and process. We safely remove existing mirrors, protect surrounding surfaces, repair walls if needed, and prepare the area for a clean new installation.

Specialty Mirror Options

Antique or distressed mirror glass adds character and depth to powder rooms, bars, dining spaces, and accent walls. LED backlit mirrors are also popular, available in both hardwired and plug-in options depending on electrical access and design preference.

Preventing Desilvering and Black Spots

Moisture is the main cause of mirror desilvering over time. Proper ventilation, correct installation, sealed edges, and gentle cleaning products all help extend the life of your mirror. We also advise on framed versus frameless mirrors based on room size, humidity, and maintenance goals.
