Tips on detail services

I am about to get my car detailed in LA, Yeah!

Do I have to give him tips as he is his boss?

tip if you think he did a better job than what you expected

but i would also take into consideration of how much the total detail cost

just like Valet .. i hardly ever let someone Valet my car .. due to it being so low .. but most Valet places have a set price of 7 bucks or so .. so if my car comes back the way it left ill just give him a 10

so generally, no?

**GLuXuRy** · 02-03-2009, 01:11 AM

i would say no .. due to the fact that your paying him for his service already

but im different ... i tip everyone ...

Maybe he`ll go above and beyond and throw in one of the "Hey I didn`t charge you for this ..... but you`re car needed it so we went ahead and did it"

Those types of business owners want your business, and understand you`ll be back if they treat you right.

I`d say it deserves a tip, or, if maybe a 6pack of the good stuff...Who knows maybe next time he`ll make sure they take extra care of your car because he`ll remember you.
