House washing in Castlebrook is a chemistry job — soft wash, dwell time, rinse. The subdivision sits in west Meridian between Black Cat and Ten Mile south of Fairview in 83642, and it is twenty-odd years old, recorded 2003–2006 across 5 phases. Sprinkler water comes off the Boise Project Board of Control's system, not the city main. About 79 acres, compact enough that we can usually do several homes in one visit.

Castlebrook is twenty-odd years old, recorded 2003–2006 across 5 phases (ZIP 83642, about 79 acres). Meridian exteriors collect three separate things. On the 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 canal mineral that marks the glass marks the siding, and on light-colored vinyl it reads as a permanent dingy band. Everywhere else you get valley dust, plus the winter inversion that holds particulate down at ground level for weeks at a time. Each needs different treatment, which is why a single pass with a pressure wand does a poor job on all three. Across roughly 79 acres it is remarkably consistent — Castlebrook is one job, not thirty different ones.
We pre-wet and post-rinse every bed on the wash path, tarp anything sensitive, and keep the mix off turf. Meridian yards are almost all on pressurized irrigation with the heads set close to the foundation, so we also make sure the system is not running mid-wash — a cycle firing partway through re-wets the wall and streaks it. If you know your zone schedule, tell us when we book and we will work around it. Castlebrook routes off Fairview, so getting here is not a special trip.
It will not fix oxidized vinyl. If your siding has chalked to the point that a dry hand comes away white, washing removes the dirt and reveals the oxidation underneath — that is a painting or replacement question and we will say so before we start rather than after. It also will not remove efflorescence from brick or block, which is mineral coming out of the masonry from the inside. We are happy to look and tell you which one you have. Castlebrook is inside our standard 83642 service area — no travel surcharge.
Castlebrook is on our regular Meridian route, not a special trip. We already work N Casa Loma Ave, N Stronghold Ave, W Hearst Dr and N Traquair Pl inside the subdivision. It routes off Fairview, which is how we keep travel out of the price. If you can tell us the nearest cross street we can usually place you immediately and 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 at a number you would then have to have corrected.
Most Castlebrook customers book this alongside window cleaning. Partly that is price — one visit rather than two — and partly it is sequence. Washing walls after cleaning glass puts dirty water back on clean panes, and hanging lights before clearing gutters means working around your own strands in January. We handle the order so you do not have to think about it.

Not at soft-wash pressure. The mix is diluted, the beds are pre-wet and rinsed, and we never drive water behind lap joints. We are fully insured, and we will point out anything already failing before we wash it.
Every one to two years for most homes. North-facing walls and any elevation shaded by a fence or neighbouring house grow back faster and may want annual attention.
$0.18 per square foot for soft washing, quoted off the wall area rather than the home's floor plan. Combining it with a window cleaning on the same visit is the cheapest way to do both.
The wash will rinse them but it is not a window cleaning — soft-wash mix leaves residue on glass. If you want the windows done properly, book them together and we do the glass after the walls, in that order for a reason.
