A Bradley Park exterior collects three different things, and only one of them is dirt. It sits in Garden City between Cole Road and Curtis south of McMillan in 83714, and it is an established 1980s–90s neighborhood, recorded 1989–1990 on one plat. It runs about 48 acres, and that scale is part of the quote.

Exteriors here collect three separate things. On north and east elevations, where sun never fully dries the wall, you get algae and mildew as a green-black film. Along the bottom three feet you get mud splash and irrigation overspray staining — the same mineral that marks the glass marks the siding, and on light vinyl it reads as a permanent dingy band. Everywhere else you get river-bottom damp that keeps north elevations from drying, plus traffic film off Chinden Boulevard and State Street. Each needs different treatment, which is why one pass with a pressure wand does a poor job on all three. We see it most consistently on the homes along N Sawyer Ave.
House washing is a chemical process, not a force one. We apply a surfactant and sodium-hypochlorite blend at low pressure, give it dwell time to kill the growth at the root, and rinse. High pressure drives water up behind lap joints and into the wall assembly, strips the chalking layer off aging vinyl, and on stucco and manufactured stone it will take the finish off outright. Soft washing kills the algae rather than knocking the top off it, which is why it stays gone longer. We pre-wet and rinse every bed on the wash path. That holds across 83714 generally, not just on this plat.
Garden City is a narrow strip along the Boise River, and almost everything about the glass here follows from that: river-bottom humidity and shade on one side, Chinden and State Street traffic film on the other, and a housing stock that runs from 1950s cottages to brand-new riverfront townhomes within the same block. That is the honest reason we push timing as hard as we push method: doing this work at the right point in the Garden City season is worth more than doing it more often at the wrong one. If you are on N Sawyer Ave or one of the streets off it, we are likely already working nearby.
Bradley Park is on our regular Garden City route, not a special trip. We already work N Sawyer Ave and E 50th St inside the subdivision. It routes off McMillan, which is how we keep travel out of the price. If you can tell us the nearest cross street we can usually quote without a site visit. Where a property is unusual — a lot of divided lites, difficult access, a steep lot — we would rather come and look than guess.
Bundling with window cleaning saves a trip charge and gets the sequence right. We will tell you honestly if you do not need the second service yet — a bundle you do not need is not a saving.

Not at soft-wash pressure. The mix is diluted, beds are pre-wet and rinsed, and we never drive water behind lap joints. We will point out anything already failing before we wash it.

$0.18/sq ft soft-wash. The final number depends on the property, and there is no contract and no membership requirement. Booking it alongside another service on the same visit is the cheapest way to do it.
Every one to two years for most homes. North-facing walls and anything shaded by a fence or neighbouring house grow back faster and may want annual attention.
The wash rinses them but it is not a window cleaning — soft-wash mix leaves residue on glass. Book them together and we do the glass after the walls, in that order.
