Step 2 Tell us about your item

These details let us confirm the right process before you arrive. Everything is checked again with you at drop-off.

Please choose the type of item you are booking in.

Please tell us the main problem or treatment required.

A preference, not a confirmed appointment — we confirm the time with you before you visit.

Please choose a preferred drop-off date.

Helpful but not required — we go through the item with you at check-in and record its condition together.

After you book, bring your item to The Gear Spa with your order number. We check it in with you, record its condition, and treatment begins once it has been assessed and accepted.

We work with reasonable care and skill, but cleaning cannot guarantee that every stain or odour will be removed, and existing wear can become more visible. We record your item's condition with you at check-in and explain any specific risks before we begin.

What’s included

A full Professional Wash & Dry for one high-vis jacket. Each jacket is assessed on arrival, cleaned with a controlled process matched to its fabric, then thoroughly dried to prevent damp retention and odour.

  • Standard wash — £29.99.
  • Added Sterilisation Treatment (+£10) — £39.99. A dry sanitising step that targets odour-causing bacteria, fungi and mould held deep in the fabric.

Suitable for

  • Standard high-vis jackets, softshells and lightweight shells
  • Insulated and lined high-vis jackets
  • Jackets with reflective tape and fluorescent hi-vis panels
  • Site, roadworks and outdoor workwear carrying oils, dust and ground-in dirt
  • Jackets needing odour control and thorough drying after heavy wear

Not suitable for

  • Jackets whose reflective tape is already peeling, cracking or lifting, which cleaning may worsen
  • Garments contaminated with hazardous substances such as chemicals, asbestos or biohazards that we cannot safely accept
  • Jackets that need waterproof repellency restored rather than a wash, which suit our Wash & Reproof service instead
  • High-vis trousers or vests, which have their own dedicated services

The specialist process

Every high-vis jacket is assessed on arrival, then cleaned using a controlled, fabric-specific process rather than a standard laundry cycle. We lift dirt, oils and site contaminants while protecting the reflective tape, fluorescent colour and fabric integrity, then dry thoroughly so the jacket comes back fresh and ready for site.

Insulated and lined high-vis jackets are handled to protect loft and construction where condition allows. Adding the Sterilisation Treatment introduces a dry sanitising step that targets odour-causing bacteria, fungi and mould held deep within the fabric.

  • Age, wear, weakened fibres, failed seam tape, deteriorated coatings, loose trims, degraded adhesives, peeling prints and previous repairs can all affect the result.
  • Please disclose known defects and previous repairs, and empty all pockets before you arrive.
  • We may decline an item we consider unsuitable or unsafe to process, and we will explain why.
  • If we find that different or additional work is needed, we will ask you before doing it.

Nothing here limits your statutory rights as a consumer, or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Full detail is in our service terms.

Will cleaning damage the reflective strips? p>Our wash process is controlled specifically to protect reflective tape and hi-vis panels. If tape is already lifting, cracking or peeling before it reaches us, we will flag this at the assessment stage, as cleaning can worsen tape that has begun to fail./p>

Can you clean insulated high-vis jackets? p>Yes. The service suits both standard and insulated or lined high-vis jackets. Insulated jackets are handled to protect loft and construction where their condition allows./p>

Should I add the Sterilisation Treatment? p>It is worth adding for jackets carrying persistent sweat, damp or site odours. The dry sanitising step targets odour-causing bacteria, fungi and mould deep in the fabric, alongside the wash./p>
