Is this price fair - regrouting two bathrooms?

Hi,
I have 1 en-suite and 1 bathroom to regrout the tiles.
Bathroom is 8m squared tiles and en-suite is 5m (£226.80) squared tiles (£282) inclusive of VAT. So total is £508.0. Is this price reasoable?
Breakdown of quote here:

Another question....Would it be cheaper for someone to hack off the old tiles, buy some cheap tiles and tile those on? Might be less cumbersome work than regrouting which would be a tedious task.
Thanks

Old grout removal with Dremmel or Fein or similar tool is a breeze. Am presuming its standard grout and not epoxy stuff?

The house is empty at the moment so it's OK for the tiler to spend 2 or 3 days working on it.
Yes, it's standard grout, so hopefully should be OK to remove.
Nothing wrong wth the tiles, so I think re-grouting rather than re-tiling is the way to go.0
