So we are washing up in the bath because there is no kitchen yet...

Was grouting the bathroom wall last night and knocked a mug off the edge of the bath onto the new ungrouted floor tiles!

Didn't notice at the time, just thought it was good that the mug didn't break o_O

Lovely chip out of one of the floor tiles now... builder says he's grouted it now and it doesn't look too bad - I'll be the judge of that when I get home!

We have spare tiles, the only problem is trying to replace the tile would risk damaging the electric underfloor heating... :(

I'd replace it......but that's just me. Is it right where you look and stand when getting outta the bath?

Not a big job to replace it - doesn't have to damage the UFH....... you'd just have o be careful.
 
Remove it from the centre or you will chip/crack adjacent tiles. It can be done. Ensure you remove ALL the old adhesive from the floor.

Yes, dark grey grout. Here is what it looks like now:
