Hello Wayne

If you are a WFP user then you may have to learn the art of using a sqeegee.  I do lots of inside work...whenever anyone asks me to do their insides I save it all up for a rainy day.  Ask them to remove window ornaments and blinds before you come.  I use the same detergent and method as I would outside, not too wet though.

Check if you need to use step ladders inside, ensure they are clean, we always remove shoes. 

Make sure you charge them more than you do for the outsides, we charge them 1.5 times normal outsode clean for doing insides, you may not be using ladders, but it's a lot more hassle.  I sent a lad inside yesterday for an old granny, by the time he came out I was two houses further on before he caught up with me!!

Wayne,
 i have been doing a few inside jobs of late and found using window cleaning soloution in empty bottle of spray very good!

Spray fine mist on windows then squeegy off.Not as much mess and water as with traditional mop!

I agree with Steve, solution in a sprayer is an effective way of keeping down the mess! Only effective on fairly clean windows mind. If they are dirty you will have to wash with an applicator and squeegee as normal.
Though if you don't have traditional experience with window cleaning you won't find it easy! But you should learn to use all the traditional methods as you will often be required to work in situations where it won't be possible to use your WFP.

yep charge double if the windows are filthy and cluttered else 1.5 sounds good.

  ALWAYS remove shoes!! ALWAYS ask for an old towel if cleaning patio window over nice cream carpet!! :-[  ALWAYS watch out for the valuable ornaments and ALWAYS say you never even noticed when they start apologising for the state of the place!!! ;D
