If the installer mixes too much water in the dry grout mix then it becomes chalky . I have installed tile a few times ( on my own houses ) and have never seen grout that comes off after it dries. If you don’t act quickly it dries and sticks to the tile surface. It “ain’t coming off with a mop” . Maybe too much water in the grout mix
