Our Story

Tshirt Pro has been serving the greater Carmichael area since 1999 – although the location has changed a few times, the founders have always kept the company in the Carmichael area and in the family. Karl and Lucy Hildebrandt worked hard to provide for their families, managing a pool service company and a janitorial firm. Seeking a less seasonal, more consistent income stream, they founded Tshirt Pro and embarked on a new, all-around business and life adventure.

The initial screen printing press and embroidery machine were simple, but they got the job done. Karl and Lucy quickly mastered the craft, and before too long, the rest of their family was learning too. Today, Gary and his niece Bella manage daily operations while Karl and Lucy stroll into retirement. 

Tshirt Pro is a go-to source for local companies, small businesses, schools, and event staff to purchase their custom apparel and uniforms. Our screen printing and embroidery machines can work with a wide range of apparel products. 

We became a San Juan Unified School District-approved vendor and made it our mission to help local high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools show their pride. Tshirt Pro works with students and faculty alike, keeping them well-dressed in spirit wear, custom shirts, sweatshirts, and hats. We also provide a wide range of merchandise, like stickers and banners for their social clubs, and special events.
