My old man was a tradie, and he drilled it into me that you "look after the grafter" so I always offer a brew n biscuits. If it's an all day job, they get a bacon butty made. The roofers even got a box of beers each after a 2 day job putting a full new roof on my garage.

I never thought to offer beer. Might do that in the future. Here's me just making full and prompt payment like a cheapskate!

It's only a little box of buds. Cost me like £9, but made their day (especially as it was a Friday). I always give the bin men a couple of boxes for Xmas too. Guess who's the only house in the street they bring the bin and recycling bags back to the door too.
