Shower Screen Repairs Sydney, from Hinges and Seals to New Glass
Showerland does shower screen repairs across Sydney from our Blacktown base: doors that have dropped or drag, hinges and brackets that have worn, rollers that stick and seals that have perished. Toughened glass cannot be repaired, so where a panel has cracked or chipped we replace that panel. Tell us what is wrong and we say whether it is a repair or a new panel. We do repairs for homeowners, real estate agents and strata managers.
Repairs are booking as normal.
What our shower screen repairs cover
Most faults come down to a worn part rather than a failed screen. These are the ones we fix.
Shower door repair: a door that drags, rubs or has dropped. A door that sits low or catches the frame is usually a worn hinge, a worn roller or a screen that has shifted. We find the cause and set the door true again.
Hinges and brackets. Hinges wear, and the brackets that hold a frameless panel can loosen or break. We replace the worn part. See our page on frameless shower screen brackets.
Rollers and tracks on a sliding door. A sliding door that sticks, jumps or grinds usually has worn rollers or a track full of soap scum. We replace the rollers and clear the track.
Seals and silicone. A seal that has gone hard or split lets water past the door. We replace the seal and renew the silicone line where it has failed. See our page on frameless shower screen seals.
Handles. A loose or broken handle is replaced.
Cracked or chipped glass. Toughened glass cannot be repaired. A crack or chip weakens the whole panel, so a cracked or chipped panel is replaced, not patched. If the frame and hardware are sound, only the panel is replaced, priced on measure. If the whole screen has had its day, we say so.
When a repair will not do
A repair is the right call when the glass is whole and the fault is one worn part: a hinge, a roller, a seal or a handle. It stops being the right call when the glass has cracked or chipped, when the frame or track has bent or corroded, or when the screen still leaks after new seals. Then the panel or the whole screen is replaced, and our shower screen replacement page shows how that works. If you are not sure which side your screen falls on, tell us what is wrong and we will say.
Spotting the fault before you call
A few minutes with the screen tells you most of what we will ask. Open and close the door and notice where it drags, rubs or catches. Look along the bottom edge for a gap or a split seal. Press lightly on each hinge and bracket and see whether anything moves. On a sliding door, listen for grinding and see whether it jumps off the track. Check the glass for a crack or chip, especially at the corners and edges. Note whether the fault came on suddenly or built up over time, and whether it shows along the whole door or in one spot.
Tell us what you find when you ask for the quote, and we confirm it in person.
How a shower screen repair visit works
- Tell us what is wrong. Describe the fault, the type of screen (framed, semi frameless or frameless) and the door (pivot or sliding), online or by phone.
- We look at it. We come to your bathroom, find the fault and tell you whether it is a repair or a replacement. The visit is $55, credited towards the repair.
- We quote. You get a figure for the work. Repairs usually start from $440 and go up depending on the job. Once we have quoted, the price we quote is the price you pay.
- We fix it. Our installer does the work on site, and we confirm the date with you when you book.
If the answer is a new screen, the $55 is credited to your install if you go ahead.

Questions about shower screen repairs
No. Toughened glass cannot be repaired. A crack or chip weakens the whole panel, so a cracked or chipped panel is replaced, not patched. If the frame and hardware are sound, we quote the glass on its own. Until the panel is replaced, do not knock or lean on it, and do not try to take it out yourself.
Repairs usually start from $440 and go up depending on the job. A new hinge or a seal is a different job from new rollers or a new panel, so we quote once we have seen the screen. The visit is $55, credited towards the repair. Once we have quoted, the price we quote is the price you pay.
Yes. We repair and replace parts (hinges, rollers and seals) and glass on a screen made by any maker. If a part cannot be matched, we quote new glass or a new screen instead.
Usually, yes. A dropped door normally comes down to a worn hinge or roller, or a screen that has shifted. We find the cause, replace the worn part and set the door true again. If the glass has cracked, the panel is replaced.
You can wipe soap scum off a track and clean the seals. Adjusting hinges, brackets or rollers on a glass door is better left to us: a screw tightened the wrong way can chip or crack the glass.
