What is not part of custom mirror & glass installation
Knowing where the line is keeps the visit on track and keeps you safe. When a job belongs to a specialist, NorTech tells you before you book.
- Any job where labor and materials together reach $1,000 or more is done by a licensed contractor, and NorTech flags it before you book.
- Complete shower enclosure systems with hinged doors, plumbing changes and waterproofing are a bathroom remodel, not a mirror install.
- Structural walls, windows and exterior glass are other services in this category.
- Antique mirror restoration and re-silvering of old pieces are specialty work and may not be possible.
- Wiring for lighted or heated mirrors is electrical work done by a licensed electrician.
- Tile, countertop or cabinet work around the glass is a separate service.

Add your ZIP and a few words about the job.
Compare pros near you
Each pro sets their own price and warranty. NorTech does not pick for you.
Book the pro you pick
Add photos and details on their page. Your card is held and only charged after the work and the photos.
Photos and a warranty
Your pro backs the work with a workmanship warranty — if covered work is not right, your pro makes it right, free.
Before you book custom mirror & glass installation
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Measure the space and take photos
Measure width and height at several points and note outlets, switches and lights. Photos of the wall help your pro quote and plan the mounting method.
Decide the edge and thickness
Polished edges look clean, a bevel adds a classic look, and thicker glass feels sturdier but weighs more. Ask the pro to show samples before you order.
Check for moisture
In a bathroom or kitchen, look for peeling paint, stains or soft drywall. Fix any leak first so the mirror does not hide a problem.
Mark where lights and outlets go
Use painter's tape to mark where lights, outlets and switches must clear the glass. Cutouts are made before the glass is finished.
Ask whether safety glass is required
Near tubs, floors and doors the code may require tempered or laminated glass. Your pro knows what applies to your spot.
Clear a path for delivery
Large glass is heavy and fragile. Clear hallways, door swings and the work area so the pro can bring the piece in without bumping the edges.
Say where in Union City you are
Add your neighborhood, for example Old Alvarado, Decoto, and Alvarado, or your ZIP code to your notes. Pros choose the neighborhoods they cover, and it tells them how far they have to travel.
