fixtures and fittings form

We’re in the process of buying a house and have noticed on the fixtures and fittings form that the sellers intend to remove a mirror from the bathroom. The bathroom is fully tiled, and we’re absolutely fine with them taking the mirror, but we’re concerned about whether it will leave holes in the tiles or damage behind.

Would it be unreasonable to ask the sellers to make good any holes or damage caused by removing the mirror, so the bathroom is left in a decent condition? I didn't actually think they would take it as its nothing fancy.

Has anyone had a similar situation when buying a house, and is this something that would normally be expected?

Just wondering if we’re being reasonable or asking too much? I don't want to be 'that' buyer but also I don't want holes or cracked tiles left behind.

This is the first house we are buying after the current FTB house we are currently in.

They are supposed to make good if they remove things that have been fixed to the walls.

They should “make good”.
in reality you will want a bathroom mirror so may be easiest tia accept the holes and find one that fits.

or ask to buy it from them so they leave it.

They are leaving loads of stuff such as bathroom cabinets, light fixtures etc so I presume they actually want this mirror for some reason.

Out of all 5 bedrooms they are taking 1 curtain pole etc
