She's just stupid, and she probably realized she had made a mistake while she was talking to you.   When houses are sold they advertise them by the number of bedrooms. She remembers buying a 3 bedroom house, so when she decided to have her house done, she thought that was the terminology to use.

I bet landscapers can tell you stories about charging per square yard to fertilize and having to argue with a woman who claims her yard is square.

Do you have a max square footage for each room? (say...150sq ft. max per room)...If not, maybe you should.

I went to clean a home last week that was suppose to be 3 rooms and a hall.  My customer started showing me a total of seven full size rooms, a chair, one couch and two stains on two other couches.  I explained "OK maam, you have seven rooms and not three and that would be extra".  I NEVER argue with a customer, but this one insisted that she only had 3 rooms which were her 3 bedrooms. 

Has the world gotton so tight or so stupid that I have to argue about the number of rooms that are in a home? My advertising next month is one price for a whole home special.  Tired of dealing with these freaks for a while.  Never advertise by the room deals, it brings out all the freaks who want 1-3 rooms done for peanuts.  Clap
I can remove more spots than you can.
