Same Address for Google My Business page

A web design customer runs a property maintenance company from his home. He has a local Google My Business page.

His wife is now having a website developed for a floristry business, again run from their home. Same address, same phone number.

Will this cause a problem if she also gets a local Google My Business page with the same address and phone number?

Are there any best practices for this scenario?

Ed Barnat: Try talking her into using a different phone number. Even a cell phone.
Suraj Gadage: +John Pitcher In order to rank locally, you business NAP should be consistent. In your case, you can have the same address as both the services are unique in nature. But I suggest having unique local phone numbers for each business.
