, but how much do you tip someone who is doing handywork in your apartment? is it like tipping a server, bartender or hairdresser? (20%) i am having someone assemble and build my closets for me.

depends on the work. If it's minor, quick work. 10 bucks. Heavy labor/long work, 20.

If theyre not getting paid, well maybe something...

But Handymen? I dunno, maybe I never been in a position to so I have no clue...Disregard what Im saying..lol
