You can if you want they probably don t expect one.

Is it customary to tip a roofing crew.

For something you get invoiced for and quite a lot too there s no need to tip. Tipping is not expected by general contractors and. 10 20 each certainly would probably be appreciated and be in an acceptable range. No you don t need to tip the roofers.

You could do this on your own or allow the foreman to distribute the money to the crew. After all many of us tip other workers on a routine basis and there are accepted percentages for any number of situations. Typically tips are not expected by a roofing company or by the roofing crew. To me a tip is for exceptional service.

A roofer not the boss the actual roofing crew probably make about 100 225 a day in wages depending on skill locale and how many hours they work to give you an idea of what they make. You never tip the owner of the company though if he is out there too. Perhaps tipping a contractor is a nearly extinct practice that should be made to flourish. When it comes to general contractors the question isn t how much you should tip but whether you should at all.

Should you decide to tip the roofing crew 10 to 20 per employee would be a nice amount. This does not mean you must avoid tipping but it usually is not customary. Showed item movers and house cleaners are tipped more frequently than other service professionals and that contractors like plumbers roofers and electricians are tipped the least. As a general rule general labor roofers those who scamper around the roof applying shingles are paid more than those on the ground but still it s around 10 to 15 an hour per person which is.

I think it is really up to you if you feel they work really hard and go out of their way to get it done quickly and stay longer then they should then yes.
