Sorry DanMarck....I mis-read Ken's post and your subsequent agree's with his.

I thought he was only charging for the available cleaning area(traffic areas)

I always measure the entire room steamer . So what the hell are you referring to when you say I don't know what I'm talking about. I charge for the entire bedroom . I tell the customer up front on the phone " even though we do not clean 100% of the bedroom carpet you will be charged wall to wall because of the detail work and trimming involved. We will be cleaning 100% of the visible carpet .

Sorry if that did not come across in my post.

I think you missed the point.    the point is normal people measure the whole room. not just the available cleaning area

Steamer;
 
I used to always charge by the sq/ft, if people had an issue with the fact that I wouldn't be cleaning the whole room I would explain that it was more difficult to clean around furniture as it requires more detail.

ggggrrrAngry I hate to have to quote this slim ball.
 
But most people who price by the sq ft measure the whole damn room.  you'd loose money if you only charged for the available sq ft...
 
Thats how I know that this a**hole and danmark or what ever his name is has no idea what they are talking about.

Wow. When did you cut your price in half? I remember $1.00/sq ft not too long agoShocked




$1.00/sq is when the carpet is Power-Dri cleaned, using the RX20. Carpets dry in 10 minutes. For .50, all they get is 1 hr dry times with the Ti wands.

Who room charges and who charges by the square feet. ( that survey)

I'm with ken on this steamer, square footage is the fairest pricing
