When your crime scene cleanup company leaves something behind on or in your concrete floor, then something else must follow. Read on.
Here's a comment on concrete floor cleaning during crime scene cleanup. If we look at two types of floors, both extremes from one another, we'll find newer, flatter, porous floors, possibly still curing. At the other extreme we find older, slanted, less porous floors, no longer curing. The former absorb blood and OPIM. The latter allow for blood's flow and spread in the direction of slant and cracks.

Crime Scene Cleanup Floor Grinding

Rarely, but often enough, a crime scene cleanup practitioner fails to fully clean and disinfect a decomposition. Fluids from the decedent soak through carpet and carpet padding. Once on a concrete floor these fluids begin to either spread along the floor in the direction of a floor's slant, or fluids begin to soak into a concrete floor.

Because the floor in question was 4 years old, possibly still curing, and its upper-most crust consisted of portland cement, and below very porous content, body fluids remained near the cadaver. Either neglecting or unknowingly passing over this blood stained floor's soiled concrete material, cleaners left behind enough biowaste to off gas. This went on over 4 months.

The only way to ensure all odor producing biowaste no longer remained below the sealed floor was to remove its sealer, which I did with a diamond blade, but this followed a two strong bleach disinfectant applications, which probably caused color loss to the offending materials.

Once I ground the sealer off, I could see the brown biowaste material, now perceptible, although barely. At this point it became clear that this material held a big clue to remaining blood and death odors in the room.
