Re: waterproof coloured grouting
Mapei Ultracolor Plus would be my recommendation. It comes in a wide range of colours and gives a very good finish. Just make sure you follow the instructions on the bag. Bear in mind cement based grouts are water-resistant rather than water proof.

Re: waterproof coloured grouting
Mapei is a good brand. Ive used their adhesives and sealents recently without any problems. Not used their grout before though, wish i had because i had a nightmare with the unibond i went for

Re: waterproof coloured grouting
many thanks to all, I was also worried about mildew resistance in the shower area. I find most of the current white grouts are not that good in that respect.

Re: waterproof coloured grouting
The Ultracolor Plus has anti-mould properties. They also do silicone sealant in matching colours. Ensuring adequate ventilation the the bathroom will help to reduce condensation and mould.
