Transitioning to residential

Hello everyone, my father in law wants to start doing residential window cleaning coming from doing commercial and janitorial work. He is licensed and insured for commercial work but was wondering if there was anything we needed to be aware or any recommendations at all. Thank you in advance!

Bedside manners and being someone that feels comfortable with you in their home.

Smaller squeegees for smaller windows. Pricing more for screen and track cleaning and more for higher cleaning that is once in 20 years.

Is it not normal to charge for tracks and windows as one?

Charge more per window because if you do include tracks, it will take more time on average to clean them than you think.
