To find the cost per room of the least expensive company, we need to compare the costs of both companies.

Pretty Paint Company charges $75 per room, so for a 6-room house, they would charge 6 * $75 = $<<6*75=450>>450.

Big Bucket paint company charges $426 to paint a 6-room house.

Comparing the costs, we can see that Big Bucket is the least expensive company as they charge $426 for a 6-room house.

To find the cost per room, we divide the total cost by the number of rooms.

Cost per room for Big Bucket = $426 / 6 = $<<426/6=71>>71.

Therefore, the cost per room of the least expensive company is $71.
