It may be hard to match, but you should be able to find out when the build is going on walk over to the contractor and grab an empty box.
But R U thinking of using the same bath tile thru the whole home?
The cost the builder charges for tile is a real rip, the carpet can be sold as long as it's brand new for some cash. U can post it here 4 sale.
The important factor in the install is that a layer of crack resistant floor cover be installed first, this looks like cloths that sticks to the slab.
Then it is a straight forward install with
thinset & grout.
The typical cost depends on the tile you select, but $6-8 is ballpark, if you go on a diagonal add a buck or so.
Also like most contractors cash means a better deal.
