Bahtroom quality lighting is essential and many people want to install a Bathroom Vanity Bar Light Over a Mirror? A bathroom light bar can also be referred to as a vanity light and used most commonly over a sink or mirror in a dressing area. Modeled after the style of lights that once adorned Hollywood dressing rooms, a light bar used as your bathroom vanity light can come in many different colors and designs. Replacing bathroom light fixtures gives you a chance to tour your local home improvement store to see what's the latest styles for bath lights on the market.

DIY vs Hiring a Contractor

To remove an old bar fixture and replace it with a new, quality 28-inch wide 3-light bath bar, an electrician will charge around $140. You can buy the new fixture for $70 and make the swap yourself to save some money. If the base of the old bar is larger than the new one, the new fixture won't cover the old opening. In that case you'll therefore need to fill in around the wall hole with spackle. You might also have to do some touch up repainting before installing the new fixture. To avoid this extra hassle, choose a new light bar that is the same height and width of the old one.
