What do your workers wear on the job

I am wondering what everyone wears on the job clean.  I know the chlorine is hard on anything but I would like to have a professional look, logos on cloths are a plus but you dont want then all spotted by the sauce.

I thought he was kidding on the hair net and gloves. David your asking some good questions, have you put any thought into becoming a premium member? This way it's not like your just taking information from these people without supporting them and this site.

Dickies button up short with logo embroidered from Queensboro.com, Dickies pants. SH doesn't really do squat to Dickies, but I made the mistake of buying dark colored 100% Cotton before and ruining a bunch of shirts!

If paying the $100 makes you a premium member that check is in the mail.  I plan on only asking and giving pertinent info.  Don't have the time to post things that are unproductive, silly, argumentative, or random posts. 

 

I am in this business to make money.

Poly/cotton blend 50/50,60/40, 65/35 up to 100% microfiber breathes and wicks well.

White is best! As mentioned Dickies has a good blend and holds up well!! Wal-mart throw-away sneekers work well... lotsa other options depending on usage/applications...

You mention uniform image...well nobody does uniform image either direct purchase or a rental program better that a uniform company. Supply, washing, repairs, upgrades of same quality product you want for a budgetable price weekly. 

I would suggest a light-weight poly/cotton jumpsuit [white] company logo design, maybe polos for owner or sales etc . Tons of options and pricing.. Some companies offer logos, no upfront or setup charges, sizing...3,4,5,7 changes a week...

Shop these guys as you can get a great deal or you can get stuck bad...

I spent 25 years in that industry... 

hope this "heps you"

Chris

 Just the opposite here:

Blue dickies shorts/pants, dickies khaki shirts (with embroidered logo) and white tennis shoes.  Pluse I bought ALL KINDS of other embroidered clothes for sales and marketing, and just to wear with pride.   biggrin 

Wish I could have got the dickies shirts in White...

Do you run into any problems with the wash getting on the workers legs when they are in the cargo shorts?

For me, it hasn't been a problem.. The only time I ever had a problem was when I first started cleaning and forgot my gloves one day and my hands were drenched with my mix a lot (gutters were packed, it was a mess). Whenever something gets on my legs (doesn't happen usually), it does not affect me at all and I just wash it off as soon as possible.

Thanks David.  I should have clarified - the company I order from (that does my embroidery as well) does not carry them in white.  Queensboro

The gloves are a good idea.  I don't get much sh on my hands when cleaning a roof but I do when I mix the juice.  I get more sh on my hands when I pressure wash a house.  After you soap and before you start to rinse, the soap in the wand leaks out.

If it's windy it will get on your legs.  The skin on the ankles and a few inches higher seem to get chemical burns easy so you want to protect that area.  I use cargo shorts most of the time with very short socks so I carry a rag to wipe any mix off.
