IRWIN offers some suggestions for showing appreciation to contractors, roofers, mechanics, and other professionals tradesmen on National Tradesmen Day.

1. We only visit our mechanic when there is an issue with our vehicle. You can drop by for a quick visit and grab a coffee or a sandwich and say thanks to your mechanic for being there for you when you need it.

2. Set up a surprise visit to your home or office if you are undergoing maintenance. “thank you”Party for tradesmen and construction workers to show appreciation.

3. Instead of calling your local HV/AC to complain about your air conditioner not working, contact them to express appreciation for their support over the years.

4. Send a note of appreciation by mail to your plumber. He is always there for you when you need him.
