Bathroom Remodeling in Hickory Creek
We tear out tired bathrooms and build them back with showers, tubs and floors that hold up to daily water. Before you pick anything, we walk you through the materials, what each one costs you in upkeep, and how it suits your home.
What a Bathroom Remodel Covers
A bathroom is a small room that takes a lot of water. Most of what fails in one is hidden: a shower pan that leaks into the subfloor, grout that cracks and lets water behind the tile, a wax ring that has been seeping for years. A remodel fixes what you see and what you don't.
We handle the shower or tub, the walls around it, the floor, the toilet and the plumbing fixtures. Sometimes that means a full gut down to the studs. Sometimes it means a tub-to-shower conversion and a new floor. We tell you which one your bathroom actually needs.
Materials are where most people get stuck, so that is where we spend time with you. Porcelain or natural stone, acrylic or cast iron, tile floor or luxury vinyl. Each has a real trade-off, and we explain it in plain words.
What the Work Includes
- Demo down to sound framing
- We remove the old tile, tub or shower and check the studs and subfloor underneath. Soft or stained wood gets replaced before anything new goes in.
- A membrane under the tile
- Tile sheds most water, but grout soaks some up and lets it pass over time. So we put a waterproof membrane on the shower walls and pan first. Moisture stays out of the studs and the subfloor.
- Shower and tub installation
- Acrylic tubs are light, warm to the touch and easy to clean. Cast iron holds heat longer and lasts for decades but weighs a lot. Tiled walk-in showers give you the most design choice. We help you weigh each one.
- Tile and flooring
- Porcelain tile is dense, takes water well and resists stains. Natural stone looks great but needs sealing. Luxury vinyl plank is warmer underfoot and forgiving on a floor that moves a little.
- Fixtures and plumbing updates
- New faucets, shower valves, toilets and drains. If a drain or valve needs to move, we handle the plumbing change and the permit that goes with it.
Signs Your Bathroom Is Due
Cracked tile or grout
Hairline cracks open a path for water. North Texas clay soil shifts as it wets and dries, and tile set on a poor base shows it first.
Soft spots near the tub or toilet
A floor that flexes or feels spongy usually means water has reached the subfloor. That gets worse, not better.
Stains or musty smells
Dark grout lines that won't scrub clean, peeling paint or a smell that comes back after cleaning point to moisture trapped behind the walls.
A tub nobody uses
If the tub just holds a shower curtain, a walk-in shower may fit how you live now and be easier to step into.
Mineral buildup that won't quit
Crusty faucets and spotted glass wear fixtures out. Newer finishes and smoother surfaces make the cleanup easier.
How the Job Runs
- 1
Phone call and walkthrough
You call, we set a time to see the bathroom. We look at the layout, check for water damage and talk through the finishes you're considering.
- 2
Written quote with options side by side
You get a line-item quote. Where two products make sense, we price both so you can see what changes in cost and upkeep.
- 3
Demo and repairs
We protect the path through your home, tear out the old finishes and fix any rot or framing issues we find. If we find something new, we show you photos before we go further.
- 4
Build back and finish
Waterproofing, tile, fixtures and trim go in. Plumbing changes get inspected when the city requires it.
- 5
Final walkthrough and cleanup
We clean up, test every fixture with you and go over care for your new surfaces. The work is backed by our 1-year warranty.
What Moves the Price
Every bathroom is priced on its own. Two rooms the same size can land far apart once finishes, plumbing and hidden damage are counted. We break it all out in your quote so nothing shows up later as a surprise.
- Finish choices
- Porcelain tile, natural stone and vinyl plank sit at very different price points. So do acrylic and cast iron tubs. Large-format tile also takes more prep and labor to set flat.
- Moving plumbing
- Keeping the drain and valve where they are saves money. Moving a toilet or turning a tub into a shower with a new drain spot adds labor and a permit.
- What's behind the walls
- Rotted subfloor, old galvanized pipe or framing damage only shows up after demo. We tell you right away if we find it.
- Size and layout
- More square footage means more tile and more labor. A curbless shower or a niche adds detail work.
Common Questions About a Bathroom Remodel
Something not covered here? (940) 291-9906
How many days will we be without that bathroom?
It depends on the scope. Swapping a tub for a shower or replacing the floor and fixtures moves faster than tearing the room down to the studs. A full rebuild with new tile and moved plumbing runs longer, more so when the city needs to inspect. Your quote comes with a schedule, and if it's the only bathroom in your home, let us know so we can plan the work around that.
Should I pick porcelain tile or natural stone for the shower?
For most people, porcelain is the simpler pick. It's dense, takes on almost no water and never needs sealing. Marble, travertine and other natural stone look great, but they're softer, can etch from cleaners and need resealing over time. We bring samples of both so you can see and feel the difference before you choose.
Does luxury vinyl plank work on a bathroom floor?
It does. A good vinyl plank has a waterproof top layer, feels warmer on bare feet and copes with a little floor movement better than tile. The trade-off is a shorter life than porcelain, and seams can lift if water sits on them for long stretches. It makes sense in a guest bath or hall bath.
What kind of warranty comes with the work?
Each bathroom remodel we complete is covered by a 1-year warranty. If something we installed starts acting up, give us a call. We'll come take a look and fix what's ours to fix.
Can my bathroom be done alongside other rooms?
Yes. Some homeowners team up a bathroom with our kitchen remodeling work, and others roll it into a larger whole home remodeling project. Handling the rooms together often cuts down on setup and scheduling time.
