So, while you all say don't ask them to redo it, I think I can
ask them about doing something to remedy it, either use a chemical to
get rid of the stain, or maybe cut it down a fraction of an inch and
try a *little more concrete... we'll see what they say.

I'll take a guess...bring your checkbook to the conversation.

Seems a hell of a lot easier to get some
CLR or similar rust remover for $5 and try it.
I doubt anyone doing concrete work guarantees
how the color of the job is going to turn out in
the area where the old meets the new.

Also what I don't get is the refusal to paint the
floor of a finished basement. I've yet to see
what I'd call a finished basement where the
floor is bare concrete. Most of the bare concrete
basement floors I've seen have been far from
uniform in color appearance, even those that
have not been cut and patched.
