Do you tip the guys who shampoo your carpet???? I never did but now I'm wondering. Yeah, they are here now!

[terrier3]

I do, if they do a great job.

I tipped $10 each to 2 guys, but I tip a lot and other posters disagree with me!

Did they move large pieces of furniture out of the way? Will they be putting it back into place to your satisfaction?

If yes, I would give them a tip.

Thank you! I I'll give them each $10, that sounds right. And it's all the cash I have in the house... thanks, again

I'm probably too late, but I see you gave them a nice tip. My son used to work for a carpet cleaning service and they really appreciate tips. Most of them work really hard and it's not an easy job.

Same here. We had some landscaping done in May and it was a 2 day job with 4 workers. We gave each one of them $10. When we handed them the money, they were all shocked and said very seldom do they ever get a tip.

If they do a good job and don't take more breaks than needed, we always tip. We also supplied them with ice cold water while working here in the hot weather.

I bet you made their weekend!

How nice of you!!!

I have never tipped, never even thought about it, just asked my co-workers we must be a cheap bunch no one tips

[sidsmom]

Nope, no tip. I think of carpet cleaners as professional staff, not service staff. I did give them a bottle of water when they finished, tho.
