Building I clean has bunch of t&g. I noticed tonight how dirty the grout is getting. Its been down for 5 yrs now and they are only buffing it.

Is this right?, buffing tile.

If they have floor finish on it, the it is completely normal to buff it. I have done lots of floors like this (usually sub work for janitorial companies.)

Yep. Gotta get the finish off to get to the t&g.
