In October 2024, Roger van den Bosch and Chase Garrett weren’t planning to start a pressure washing company, they were simply trying to solve a problem. Through Roger’s business, Miso Hungry, they discovered a gap in reliable kitchen hood cleaning services. Rather than waiting around, they got certified, did it themselves, and quickly realized something larger: people, both homeowners and business owners, were tired of chasing down services that rarely showed up or followed through.
So they started VG Pressure Washing with a goal that extended far beyond pressure washing. From their first job to today, they said their focus has always been about helping people, especially homeowners, feel like they finally have a dependable team they can trust.
Built Around Homeowners First
Although their commercial clients include large restaurant chains like Cook Out, Huddle House, and Chick-fil-A, the heart of V&G is in its residential services. They offer pressure washing for siding, driveways, gutters, fences, decks, patios, and more, helping homeowners maintain and refresh the look and value of their properties.
Their approach to residential work isn’t transactional. It’s personal. They shared the story of one client who initially called them for house washing, but over time, began asking for help with other household tasks. Whether it was something they could do themselves or not, the VG team made sure she had a solution.
“That’s what we’re trying to build,” they said. “Not just a one-time job, but a long-term relationship. Once you’re our customer, we want to be your go-to.”
Humble Beginnings, Hard-Earned Growth
Their first residential job happened right after a hurricane. With no clients lined up yet, the pair saw fallen limbs and yard debris all over their neighborhood. They gathered friends, went door to door offering to clean up storm damage, and used it as an entry point to introduce pressure washing.
The job was physically demanding, underpriced, and time-consuming, but it was a start. “Someone gave us a chance,” they said. “That was all we needed.”
Today, VG is operating across a multi-state region and continues to grow every month. Their residential work is complemented by commercial jobs like kitchen hood and exhaust cleaning, parking lot washing, and dumpster pad cleaning for restaurants and retail businesses. Cook Out, for example, has entrusted them with 11 of their locations.
But they’ve been intentional not to lose sight of where they started. “Our residential customers are the foundation. That’s where the real trust gets built.”
The Long-Term Vision
VG’s next big move is launching a subscription-style service model that will bundle common home maintenance tasks—pressure washing, yard work, pool care, and more—into a monthly package. The vision is simple: one company, one payment, full coverage. Homeowners would pay a flat monthly fee to cover pressure washing, yard work, pool cleaning, and other routine tasks, removing the stress of juggling multiple providers.
They said homeowners spend an average of $7,000 a year across multiple services, all while dealing with the headache of coordinating different vendors. Their goal is to simplify that. “We want to be the one team you call for everything. It’s more than convenience—it’s peace of mind.”
They’re already calling their base of operations “The Vision Shop” and have floated a future rebrand under the name The Vision.
“If someone joins our team and doesn’t see the vision, it doesn’t work,” they said. “We’re not building for now—we’re building what this will be in five years.”
A Team Built on Purpose
Every team member has been added intentionally, whether it’s someone from a shared past or a new connection with just the right skills. One came from a food truck job on a brutally hot day and never quit. Another reappeared from childhood after a chance Walmart encounter. Scheduling, sales, and even social media are handled by individuals who bring passion and personal strengths to the table.
“Everyone on our team has a gift,” they said. “Our job is to give them the platform to use it.”
They described the company culture as vision-driven, not clock-driven. “If you’re looking for a 9-to-5, this isn’t the place. We work late, we work early, but we’re building something bigger than a paycheck.”
Customer Satisfaction Comes First
Whether it’s a five-hour job on a tiny restaurant hood or a pressure wash that reveals years of grime, every task is approached with the same mindset: do it right, do it with care, and treat people with respect.
One commercial property manager recently questioned whether a gutter had been cleaned properly, despite the job being done to spec. Instead of arguing, VG went to Lowe’s, bought a taller ladder, and climbed back up to take a photo just to reassure the client.
“We didn't have to do that,” they said, “but it was the right thing to do.”
They credit their philosophy to customer-first thinkers like Jesse Cole, the Savannah Bananas owner. “It’s all about experience. We don’t just want people to be satisfied, we want them to be surprised by how good the experience was.”
