Screen mesh in Broken Horn holds far more silt than the glass beside it. It sits in Boise between Cole Road and Curtis north of Beacon Light in 83714, and it is one of the city's active build-outs, platted 2021–2022 on one plat. It runs about 151 acres, with real variety in elevation and glass package — which is what the quote is built from.

Screen mesh is a filter, and here it filters irrigation. Silt carried in sprinkler overspray dries in the weave, and because the mesh is rough it holds far more of it than the glass does. Add decomposed granite off the foothills, plus the winter inversion that traps particulate at ground level for weeks at a time and pollen and within a season the screen carries a grey load you can see through a freshly cleaned window. That is the complaint we hear most: 'you cleaned the glass but it still looks hazy.' It is almost always the screen. We see it most consistently on the homes along W Red Poll Dr.
Scrubbing a screen in its opening pushes silt deeper into the weave and flexes the frame. We pull each one, wash it flat on a padded surface so the mesh is supported, rinse from both sides, dry it and reseat it in the same opening it came from. Screens are not interchangeable — a frame that has sat in one opening for fifteen years has taken that opening's shape. We do not charge for a screen we cannot clean, and we will tell you which are too brittle to pull. Being this close to Beacon Light means the road-facing elevation is always the one that needs the most attention.
Boise glass carries something the rest of the valley does not: foothills grit. Decomposed granite off the slope is sharp and fine, it travels on the afternoon downslope wind, and in winter the valley inversion holds everything else down at ground level with it. That is the honest reason we push timing as hard as we push method: doing this work at the right point in the Boise season is worth more than doing it more often at the wrong one. Broken Horn routes off Beacon Light, so getting here is not a special trip.
We clean and reseat screens. We do not re-mesh or re-frame them, and we do not charge for a screen we cannot clean. We are locally owned and fully insured, and we would rather point you to the right trade than take work we cannot finish well.
Broken Horn is on our regular Boise route, not a special trip. We already work W Red Poll Dr and N Seaman Gulch Rd inside the subdivision. It routes off Beacon Light, 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.

Because it is real additional labour — every screen pulled, washed flat, dried and reseated. At $50 added to a window service it is far less than booking it alone.

+$50 with a window service. 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.
We handle them flat and supported, which is the gentlest way. On screens already brittle we show you the risk before pulling them and let you decide.
We do not re-screen. We will tell you which ones need it so you can get them redone rather than discovering it next spring.
