She may have ocd or something like it . I do a house just like that and the woman has this condition ,and I clean the carpets every 3-4 months .She is a pain in the arris but boy do I get some work from her. She wont have anyone else do the carpets .She once got me round to clean the hall and lounge because she had a fall and the ambulance guys came into house with their shoes on ,and she asked them as she was laying on the floor in agony with a broken hip to remove their shoes or put on covers ( I kid you not  ) they obviously didnt . I have said to her on a number of occasions that the carpets dont really need cleaning ,but she insists .....so who am I to say no .
I have also cleaned her whole house carpets straight after the new carpets have been fitted .So not only did I get to supply and fit the carpets but I then cleaned them .
So dont knock it mate she could turn out to be a very good customer .

Yes I think your probably right Tony,her old man may be a right task master,who knows,one thing I did learn from her,is how to get the dents from furniture out of carpets completely,steam iron and damp towel,said go over it a few times then leave towel on,she said it took her over a week,going around the entire house removing them,she did a great job as you couldn't see any marks,so may be a case of ocd or just very very house proud.
She said she was in her last place for over 30 years and said the carpets were as good as new when they left,personally couldn't live in a sterile environment like that,but each to their own hey
