Bathroom mirror is falling.

Today I noticed the master bathroom mirror is disconnecting from the wall. It's separating at the top and is leaning.
Does the whole mirror need to come down and be reattached or can I just put some mirror mastic on the top to reattach?
TIA

Find stud. Buy clips at Lowe's for $5. Screw clips in. Done.

The clip will work. But if you dont want a clip up there I suggest removing and reglueing.

Have your wife/gf stand in front of the mirror naked and take a pic. We will then be able better advise you as how to correct the problem.

Take down and rehang with mastic. You could try and squirt some mastic behind there with a caulk gun, but mastic is messy and you run a high chance of getting black tar all over the top of your mirror. You could use clips, but meh, those are ugly.

Thanks for the tips. I am gonna tape it to hold and go to Lowe's tomorrow.

Take the whole wall down. Don't go the easy route. Will have to be done eventually.

Mirror was secured properly and house is only 7 years old. What would cause it to fall?

Lowe's sells the mastic that comes in caulk tubes, near the mirrors in Home Decor. I've bought it there and used it several times. I would take the mirror down if it will come off easily and reapply the mastic.

Sorry brah.

Bathroom board bruh

Does that involve sanding down the old mastic from the wall and mirror?

Wov, just wow...the stupidity on this board amazes me at times..

I am assuming that there is no frame around the mirror and that it is not currently held by clips, correct?...
