Save the tile that's worth saving
Most houses around Hilton Road went up in the 1970s and 80s, so a lot of the tile out here is old enough to ask the question. We tell you what can stay with fresh grout and caulk and what has to come out, then do the work, driving out from our Tulsa base.

Real reviews, and the owner behind the work
Two of our customers talk through their remodel on camera, the owner introduces himself, and three Google reviews appear exactly as their writers posted them.
I don’t think you could find anybody any better to work with than these people.The homeowners, in their video review
Jeremy learned to set tile at 16, working under a Tulsa builder with more than forty years in the trade. Standing in your Hilton bathroom, he will say plainly whether the tile is worth keeping, even when the honest answer is the smaller job.
About JeremyThe owners and staff were very respectful and they are the kind of people you recommend to others!
Great job, would recommend them 10/10
The owner is kind and respectful, it was a great experience. I would definitely recommend!

Hilton home bathroom renovation
What we see in Hilton bathrooms
Hilton has no Census count of its own, so these numbers are for the Census tract it sits in, the houses along and around Hilton Road east of Sapulpa. They describe a place of houses, mostly from the 1970s and 80s, owned by the people who live in them.
The Hilton tract, by the numbers
- 1986Source 1
- Median year a home in the Hilton tract was built Give or take about three years, the Census margin. Half the homes are older.
- About halfSource 1
- of its homes went up between 1970 and 1989 Roughly 380 of about 770 homes.
- 99%Source 1
- are detached single-family houses The Census estimate shows no apartment buildings and no mobile homes here.
- 54%Source 1
- of owners moved in during 2010 or later About 350 of roughly 640 owner households. Owners, not renters, live in more than 9 in 10 of them.
What that means for the tile on your walls
-
Showers from the 1970s and 80s
With half the houses from those two decades, many showers here are on their original walls or a second round of grout. Tub surrounds of that era were often tiled over paper-faced gypsum board, which holds up only as long as the grout and caulk stay perfect. That one fact decides whether a shower can be saved.Source 1
-
A new owner, someone else's repairs
More than half the owners here bought in 2010 or later, so the history of the bathroom often left with the seller. Caulk smeared over cracked grout, a grout pen over dark joints, a tile glued back in place: none of them tell you what is happening behind the wall. We look past them before we quote anything.Source 1
-
A Sapulpa address, a line nearby
Hilton never incorporated. On Census maps its point on Hilton Road sits just inside Sapulpa's city limit, with unincorporated Creek County starting less than a mile east and Tulsa County beyond that. Your mail says Sapulpa either way, but when a job needs a plumbing or electrical permit, the side of the line your house is on decides whose rules apply.Source 3
-
Owners who plan to stay
The median age in the tract is about 51. If a shower wall is coming down anyway, that is the cheapest moment to add wood blocking for grab bars and to think about a lower way in, even if nobody needs either yet.Source 1
-
Younger houses than Sapulpa's older streets
Half of Sapulpa's homes date from 1977 or earlier, and many of its oldest ones bring cast iron and old drains with them. Around Hilton the questions are newer: what the tile was set on, a builder-grade tub, and the big 1980s soaking tub. If your house is closer to downtown Sapulpa, our Sapulpa page covers what we find there.Source 2

Shower replacement in Hilton, OK
Where are you in your Hilton house?
Around Hilton, how long you have owned the house says as much about the bathroom as the year it was built. Pick the closest and see where we would start.
Moved in recently
Find out what you bought first
Before anything is picked out, we tap the tile, check under the sink and around the tub, and tell you which parts of the bathroom are sound and which were patched. Often the hall bath's tub and shower is the first thing worth changing, because it gets used every day.
- A plain list: what stays, what goes
- Patches and old repairs found and named
- The everyday bathroom done first
Here for decades
Redo the bathroom you put up with
An oak vanity with a cultured marble top, a soaking tub nobody fills, a small shower stall beside it: if that is your primary bath, it is usually one remodel, not a series of patches. We took exactly that room apart in east Tulsa and put a tiled walk-in shower where the tub was.
- Tub out, a full tiled shower in its place
- New vanity and counter, in the material you pick
- Waterproofed walls behind every tile
Staying for good
A shower you can keep using at 90
A walk-in shower with a low curb or none, a seat, a hand shower on a slide bar and grab bars on solid blocking. It does not have to look medical, and it is easier to build now, on your schedule, than after a fall. We built this one for a veteran in Glenpool.
- Low curb or curbless entry
- Seat and hand shower placed for you
- Grab bars that hold real weight
Bathroom grout repair in Hilton, OK
Keep the tile or tear it out? Ask the wall.
New grout is the cheapest way to make a bathroom look new, and the most expensive mistake when the wall behind it is failing. This is how to tell, which grout we usually put back, and where grout should never go.
When the old tile can stay
Sound tile on a sound backer is worth keeping. Only the joints get redone.
- Every tile sounds solid
- Tap across the wall with a knuckle or a screwdriver handle. A dull, hollow note means the tile has let go of the wall.
- The wall is cement board or mortar
- Take the trim plate off the shower valve and the edge of the wall is right there. Gray board or a thick mortar bed can stay.
- Floors and dry walls
- A bathroom floor or a tiled wainscot outside the shower is often the best regrout in the house. They never see a daily soaking.
- Expect a new color
- New grout beside forty-year-old tile will not match the old joints, so a patched area tends to show. We talk through how much to regrout before we start. How a regrout job runs.
When it has to come out
If the wall behind the tile is wet or weak, new grout only hides it for a while.
- Tile on gypsum board in the shower
- Paper-faced board softens once water gets past the grout, and fresh grout does nothing for a board that is already soft. We show you what we find before you decide.
- Hollow or loose tile
- One or two can be reset on a sound wall. A whole hollow area means the bond is gone, and the backer is the next question.
- Give at the tub line
- Push on the wall just above the tub. Any softness, or a crack that runs straight across several tiles, is water or movement behind.
- A tile no longer made
- When several cracked tiles need replacing and none can be matched, retiling the shower usually costs less than chasing near-matches.
Which grout goes back in
We typically use Mapei grout, such as Mapei Ultracolor Plus FA, an all-in-one sanded grout, and we can use any grout you ask for, with our recommendations. These are the four kinds you will hear about.
- Standard cement grout
- Powder mixed with water (ANSI A118.6). Cheap and easy to repair, but porous, so it darkens in a shower unless it is sealed and resealed.
- High-performance cement grout
- Polymer-modified powder (ANSI A118.7). Denser, more even in color and slower to stain than standard grout.
- Urethane grout
- Comes ready-mixed in a pail and needs no sealer. It wants perfectly clean, dry joints and a longer wait before the shower is used.
- Epoxy grout
- Resin, mixed in small batches (ANSI A118.3). Close to waterproof and stain-proof, and harder to install.
| Standard cement | High-performance cement | Urethane | Epoxy | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soaks up water | Yes, the most | Less | Very little | Almost none |
| Sealing | Needed, and again later | Per the maker's directions | Not needed | Not needed |
| Often chosen for | Dry floors and wainscot | Shower walls | Regrouts where an even color matters | Shower floors, benches and niches |
| Watch for | Dark lines in a wet shower | Still a cement grout | Days before the shower can be used | Higher cost, skilled install |
Caulk where the planes change
Where a wall meets a wall, a tub or a floor, the joint moves. Grout there cracks.
- Inside corners
- Every vertical corner of the shower gets flexible sealant, not grout. The tile industry's movement joint guidelines call for it.
- Tub, floor and curb
- The joint where wall tile meets the tub, the shower floor or the curb moves the most. It gets sealant, color-matched to the grout.
- Never caulk over cracked grout
- A bead smeared over a cracked joint traps water behind it. The grout comes out first, then the corner is sealed properly.
- Sealant is maintenance
- It is the one part of a tile shower meant to be cut out and redone over the years. When it darkens or pulls away, replace it.

Tile work we finished east of Hilton
We have no finished job in Hilton to show yet. These three are short drives away, in Glenpool and south and east Tulsa, each with its scope, what turned up, and the price range from the signed quote.
-
A soaking tub inside the shower
South Tulsa homeowners wanted a freestanding soaking tub without giving up the shower. We took out the old tub and shower floor and built a wet room: the tub and the shower share one tiled, waterproofed space with a pebble floor.
-
A safe shower for a U.S. military veteran
The Tinker Federal Credit Union Foundation asked us to build an accessible shower for a Korean War veteran in Glenpool, within a nonprofit budget. The corner jacuzzi tub came out, and a curbless roll-in shower with grab bars went in its place.
-
The garden tub became the shower
An east Tulsa master bath with a jacuzzi garden tub, a separate older shower and an oak double vanity. We built a full tiled shower where the tub was, then updated the rest of the room around it, and the guest bath vanity too.

Questions we hear around Hilton Road
Do you work in Hilton, even with a Sapulpa address?
Yes. Most Hilton homes carry a Sapulpa, OK 74066 mailing address, and we come out from Tulsa for estimates on both sides of the Sapulpa city line and on into the county. Which side your house is on matters if the job needs a permit: under Oklahoma state law a bathroom remodel does not always need one, and that turns on the work and on where the house sits. We sort that out with you on the walkthrough.
What does a bathroom remodel cost in Hilton, OK?
With us, a full remodel usually comes to $10,000 to $25,000, and the smallest job we take is $2,500 to $5,000. Two nearby jobs show the range: a roll-in shower in Glenpool came to about $7,000 to $8,500, and a freestanding tub wet room in south Tulsa to about $8,000 to $9,000. The price for your bathroom comes after we have stood in it. What moves the number.
How long does a shower replacement take in Hilton, OK?
Plan on a week or so, and as long as two if the shower is big, the tile is detailed or the subfloor under the old pan has to be repaired. Retiling waits on the waterproofing, which needs its cure time before tile goes on. Work usually gets going 1 to 2 weeks after you sign off on the quote, and acrylic panels or a one-day kit, which we also install, take less time than tile.
Do you offer financing for a Hilton bathroom remodel?
No, we do not finance work. Hilton homeowners who want to spread payments out can apply with a local lender, such as Tulsa Teachers Credit Union, Arvest or Regent Bank, using our itemized written quote to show what the loan covers.
Can you regrout my shower instead of remodeling it?
When the tile is tight and the wall behind it is cement board or mortar, yes, and it is often the right call. When the tile is on gypsum board or sounds hollow, we tell you so instead of selling a regrout. A regrout on its own has to meet our $2,500 to $5,000 minimum, so it fits best for a full shower and floor. Tile and grout repair.
Do you install walk-in tubs for seniors in Hilton, OK?
Yes. Most walk-in tubs have a door in the front wall, a built-in seat and a low threshold, so nobody climbs over a tub wall; the bather sits inside while it fills and drains, which takes some patience. The plumbers on our team handle the supply and the drain, and we remodel the bathroom around the tub. Walk-in tubs.
Can you make a Hilton bathroom safer for aging in place?
Yes: a walk-in shower with a low curb or none, a seat, a hand shower and grab bars where the person reaches. If you are planning it for a parent, have them at the visit, so the heights and reach fit the person who will use it. Walk-in showers.
Does the VA help with a walk-in tub in Hilton, OK?
Yes, if a VA doctor writes a prescription for it on medical grounds. The HISA benefit covers up to $6,800 in a veteran's lifetime for a service-connected disability or a rating of 50% or more, and up to $2,000 otherwise. Anything beyond the prescription is billed to the homeowner, and we go over it line by line. How we work with the VA.
Do you remodel commercial restrooms in Hilton, OK?
Yes, for offices, shops and churches around Hilton: floors, tile walls, stalls and fixtures. On site, the usual restroom takes 2 days to a week. Commercial restroom remodeling.
Can you bring a Hilton business restroom up to ADA standards?
Yes. We plan each change to the 2010 ADA Standards, from the clear floor space at the toilet and sink to grab bar heights, the stall door and the height of the mirror and dispensers. Where the old room is short on space, we lay out what fits, and what it would take, before work starts. ADA restroom compliance.
How do you limit downtime for a Hilton business?
We agree on the dates before the first tile comes off and plan around the hours you are open, if you ask. Where a building has two restrooms, one can stay open while we work on the other; whether to do that is your choice. If tear-out turns up rotten framing, you hear about it and approve it before the extra work is done.
