A Sunset Oaks exterior collects three different things, and only one of them is dirt. It sits in Nampa off Cherry Ln near N Franklin Blvd in 83687, and it is a turn-of-the-2000s subdivision, recorded 1995–1998 across 8 phases. About 91 acres and about 338 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. Across about 91 acres the pattern barely varies here.
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. On Sunset Oaks homes of this vintage we check condition before method, every time.
Two things drive this in Nampa: untreated canal water through the irrigation line, and 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. Separately each is manageable. Together they bond, and that is the condition we are actually treating on a Sunset Oaks job. Sunset Oaks routes off Cherry, so getting here is not a special trip.
Soft washing removes organic growth and dirt. It will not fix oxidised vinyl, it will not pull efflorescence out of masonry, and it does not repaint anything. We are locally owned and fully insured, and we would rather point you to the right trade than take work we cannot finish well.
Sunset Oaks is on our regular Nampa route, not a special trip. We already work Bridgeport Dr, Baywood Ct, Abby Ln and N 20th St inside the subdivision. It routes off Cherry, which is how we keep travel out of the price. Neighbours booking on the same day is the cheapest way to do it — we are already set up on the street, so the second and third homes cost less to serve than the first.

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.
