You're missing that it isn't worth a contractors time to come out and hang a dang mirror for $150 so they quoted you a price it would be worth it at. Is it gouging? Yup. But unless you have a handy uncle or feel like doing it yourself you're stuck with it. Should call a handyman anyways, using a GC to mount a mirror is like calling an electrician to reset a blown breaker. More on reddit.com

In my experience, a lighted mirror does not provide enough light to the rest of the room. After living in enough apartments that had completely inadequate lighting, if I have the option, I’ll always go for more light. It’s something I don’t think people take into consideration until they need it- a water leak at the toilet (or in this case the washer too) but you need your phone as a flashlight to try to see where it’s coming from, a pet vomits on the floor but you can’t see well enough to tell if it’s completely cleaned up, dropped an earring or a ring and, again, have to get out your phone or a flashlight to see where it rolled.
