Hi Brownstoners,

First, thank you to everyone who gave advice on my post about doing a first walkthru/punchlist.

So, the walkthru is done, and one problem we found was a large chip at the bottom of the mirror above the sink in the hall bath. The seller says he can’t fix the chip and will give us a credit to replace the mirror.

The problem? I have no idea what it would cost to replace this thing and, unfortunately Brownstoners, I don’t have a pic of the whole mirror, either (I know, I’m an idiot).

Basically, you can see the width of the mirror in the pic above. It is a frameless mirror attached (I think glued) right to the wall. I’m sure removing it will do damage to the wall, so I want to take that into account when figuring out the credit.

The mirror is probably about 4 feet high and 2 feet (maybe 2 and a half) across. It’s not a medicine cabinet, just a flat mirror against the wall.

Any ideas of what I should ask for?

Additionally, in the master bath, there was about a half-inch gap in one spot between the CeasarStone countertop and the sink (someone cut the countertop incorrectly, leaving more space than needed for the sink). The seller was able to fill the gap with caulk matching the shade of the CeasarStone, but agreed to still give me a partial credit, since the caulk shouldn’t be there.

Again, I’m not sure what this kind of mistake is worth. Any suggestions?

Thanks a million, all!
