Siding in Harvest Creek carries algae on the shaded walls and an irrigation band along the bottom three feet. It sits in Nampa just off E Locust Ln, a short run from S Happy Valley Rd in 83686, and it is one of the city's active build-outs, platted 2023–2026 across 5 phases. About 68 acres and about 265 lots, compact enough to do several homes in one visit.

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 Canyon County field dust — spring disking, the summer hay and mint cuttings, and the fall onion, sugar-beet and silage harvest, carried on the west wind off the Snake River plain. Each needs different treatment, which is why one pass with a pressure wand does a poor job on all three. With 5 phases recorded, the older streets show it further along than the newest ones, and we price accordingly.
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. Being this close to E Locust means the road-facing elevation is always the one that needs the most attention.
The local variable here is Canyon County field dust — spring disking, the summer hay and mint cuttings, and the fall onion, sugar-beet and silage harvest, carried on the west wind off the Snake River plain. It does not act alone — it lands on glass and siding still damp from irrigation and binds into the mineral film, which is why Harvest Creek properties go from clean to visibly dirty faster than owners expect. If you are on E Jute St or one of the streets off it, we are likely already working nearby.
This pairs naturally with window cleaning, and doing both on one visit is cheaper than two trips — setup and drive time are most of the fixed cost. It is also better work: there is an order these jobs should happen in, and doing them on separate days usually means doing one of them twice.
Harvest Creek is on our regular Nampa route, not a special trip. We already work E Patchwork Dr, S Quilt Ave, E Jute St and E Pepper St inside the subdivision. It routes off E Locust, which is how we keep travel out of the price. We schedule by area rather than first-come, which keeps drive time down and holds prices where they are.

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.
