You're supposed to tip them?

Wow, I am certainly not cheap, but I would never even think to tip them!

I don't know, maybe I'm wrong! Then are you supposed to tip all your contracters/workers? I've bought coffee and doughnuts, or lunch, but never tipped Chat Icon

that's what I was thinking. It's just a small part of the yard, so they should be done before noon.

Thanks for the replies, everyone! Chat Icon

Re: How much to tip fence people?

When I had contractors here doing the fence, cement, landscaping I didnt tip them, I bought them coffee and then for lunch I bought them sandwhiches and gatorade. I had a cooler filled with gatorade for them all day long. Even for the guys that did my roof and siding. there are so many of them, it adds up to tip them each.

when we had 1 contractor doing our painting and wallpaper, and molding, we tipped him b/c he was by himself.

when they did our laminate floors there were 3 guys DH I believe tipped them.
