Do you tip your cleaning lady/maid? If so, how much or by what percent?

    15-20% depending on the amount and quality of work

    No, we use a service.  We have had a few different crews and some have been better than others.  Since I don't know how the job was until I get home, I am glad we didn't tip.

    I had one lady while I was pregnant and I always gave her something extra because she did a lot more than what she was hired to do. But the one I had a little while ago she barely did what she was supposed to do

    Is this cleaning lagy hired by you or a service?

    Does this person come weekly/ monthly or is this just a one time deal?

    Does this person do above and beyond what they are hired to do? 

    If this person was hired by me, came on a regular basis and did what they were supposed to do, then no I wouldn't tip, I would just pay them.  However if they went above and beyond, or were hired by a service and didn't come on a regular basis...I would probably tip.

    Nope, we don't unless it's the holidays.

    I give her a full days pay at Christmas in a card.  Otherwise, no.  I pay her top dollar otherwise.

    I don't tip....I do have bottles of water and granola bars out on the kitchen counter if they want it (but they never take it). We use a service that always sends different people.

    Maybe if we used a single person who we really got to know well, I'd tip at the holidays maybe. I don't think it's necessary though.

    No, we use an individual who gets to keep all the money as opposed to a service where they only get some/get paid by the hour by an employer, etc.

    We do give something at Christmas.
