Siding in South Eisenman greys out slowly from truck traffic, and most owners only notice after a clean. South Eisenman sits in southeast Boise along Eisenman Road near the airport and Gowen Field, on the industrial side of I-84, where the homes are mostly warehouses, shops, light-industrial buildings and a handful of offices. Here is how we approach house washing on this side of Boise, what it costs, and when to book it.
House washing is a low-pressure chemical process, not a high-pressure one. We apply a cleaning solution that kills the algae, mildew and organic growth living on the surface, let it dwell, then rinse at low pressure. High pressure on siding drives water behind the lap, past window flashing and into the wall assembly — that is how people end up with mould inside a wall from an exterior cleaning. Soft washing at $0.18/sq ft is the correct method for every siding type.
The north and east elevations are where you will see it first, because they stay damp longest. Around here the load is truck traffic, airport-corridor dust and diesel film — the fastest-soiling glass in Boise. On warehouses, shops, light-industrial buildings and a handful of offices you will typically see a grey-green film across the lower third of the wall, dark streaking under the eaves, and a distinct line where the sprinklers reach.
Vinyl cleans up easily and tolerates the process well. Painted wood and fibre cement need a gentler mix and careful rinsing so we do not lift sound paint. Stucco and EIFS hold solution longer and need more rinse time. Brick is straightforward but the mortar is not — old soft mortar can be washed out by pressure, which is one more reason we do not use it. We identify what you have before we mix anything.
Plants get pre-wetted and rinsed after, because the solution that kills algae will also burn foliage if it sits. We cover or avoid light fixtures, outlets and anything with an open electrical path, keep solution off window seals and screens, and close up what we open. Screens come off and get cleaned separately if you add that — mesh holds solution and will streak your glass later if it is left on.
Spring and early fall are ideal — warm enough for the solution to work, not so hot it flashes off before it dwells. House washing is $0.18/sq ft of wall area. Pair it with a window clean and you avoid the common sequencing mistake, which is washing the house after the windows and spotting all the glass. Call or text (208) 453-6760 for a firm number.
