How long does regrouting take in a bathroom?

A typical Bondi bathroom is one full day. Don't use the shower for 24 hours after silicone is applied.

Significantly — usually a tenth of the cost.

Dover Heights context

What tile regrouting & recaulking looks like in Dover Heights

Original mid-century Dover Heights bathroom tilework is typically small ceramic tile in period colours — sage green, sky blue, soft yellow — that's no longer manufactured. Preserving the original tile is the primary goal; substrate-treat carefully and reset with a colour-matched cement or polymer-modified grout. Salt-air-driven mould is the secondary concern; mould-resistant additive is standard.
