I'm currently renovating my bathroom and have hired a contractor (along with his helper). The labor cost is $13,000, and I'm covering the materials separately. I've got a couple of questions: Should I tip them at the end of the project? If so, how much is appropriate?

In general, it's not common to tip contractors since they're already getting paid what they agreed upon in the contract. That said, if you want to show appreciation, consider providing some snacks or drinks to keep morale high during the project. It doesn't have to be anything extravagant—just a little something like pizza or cold drinks can do wonders!
I totally agree! I once got my crew some cold beers at the end of a long week, and they really appreciated it.
