Should You Tip Your Peach Pro Cleaner?
Hiring a professional cleaning service like Peach Pro Cleaners is one of the best ways to enjoy a beautifully maintained home without giving up your valuable free time. But once your home is sparkling, you might be wondering: Should I tip my cleaner? And if so, how much and how often?
We’re here to clear up the confusion with a simple, honest guide to tipping your cleaner—because while it’s never required, it’s always appreciated when offered in recognition of a job well done.
When Should You Tip?
Self-Employed vs. Team-Based Cleaners
If you're working with an independent cleaner who sets their own prices, tipping is generally not expected. But at Peach Pro Cleaners, our cleaning professionals are employees—many of whom rely on tips as part of their take-home pay. While we ensure fair compensation, tips are a wonderful way to show appreciation for their hard work.
Company Tipping Policy
We keep things simple: our team members never expect tips, but they’re always grateful when clients choose to leave one. Tips are not included in our pricing, so feel free to ask us if you'd like to add one to your invoice or leave it in cash.
Extra Dirty or Time-Consuming Jobs
If your home hasn’t been cleaned in a while or you're requesting extra effort in certain areas (like deep scrubbing kitchens, bathrooms, or baseboards), you may want to consider tipping as a gesture of appreciation—even if you don’t typically tip.
Quality of Service
Notice your home feeling fresher than ever? If our team went above and beyond or exceeded your expectations, a tip is a kind way to acknowledge their effort.
How Much and How Often?
One-Time Cleanings
For a one-time service such as a move-in/move-out or deep clean, a tip of 15–20% of the service price is a great starting point—especially for larger or more demanding jobs.
Recurring Services
If you have recurring services, it’s not necessary to tip every time. Instead, consider tipping monthly, seasonally, or around the holidays as a way to thank your regular cleaner for their consistency and care.
Same Cleaner vs. Different Cleaners
If you have the same cleaner each time, you might opt for a larger tip occasionally rather than smaller ones frequently. If your service rotates between different team members, tipping per visit might make more sense.
How to Tip
Cash is always welcome and often preferred. But if you’d rather not use cash, you can:
Add a tip to your online payment or invoice
Leave a gift card or small token of appreciation
Provide a handwritten note expressing your thanks
Thoughtful gestures go a long way—especially for team members who care deeply about the spaces they clean.
