I have hired a local carpet cleaning service to come clean my apartment and I was wondering whether I am supposed to tip them on top of paying the normal service rate.

Yes, but wait until I take over the carpet cleaning. A tip of 50 to 60% would be appropriate.

No. He is being paid to do a job and it better be a good job. There is far too much mediocre work being done. If I'm paying big bucks for a job, I expect nothing less than the best.

It isnt customary but you can if you like, especially if they do a really good job or do something extra like move some furniture. Or you could just offe them a coke and some cookies, something just to say thank you.

No, and in some places they could be in trouble for accepting if you did offer. I often offer a refreshment like ice tea or lemonade

You can tip if you want to but it's not customary. They get paid good enough for their service by you and their employer.

I'd say no, unless they really pleased you with their service.
