If your Decatur Estates windows still look hazy after a cleaning, it is almost certainly the screens. The subdivision sits in north Meridian between Ten Mile and Linder, just south of McMillan in 83646, and it is one of Meridian's active build-outs, platted 2016–2019 across 3 phases. It is a small pocket — about 38 acres, and that scale is part of the quote. Settlers Irrigation District supplies the pressurized irrigation on these lots.

Worth knowing first: Decatur Estates is one of Meridian's active build-outs, platted 2016–2019 across 3 phases (ZIP 83646, about 38 acres). Screen mesh is a filter, and in Meridian it filters irrigation. Canal 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 north Meridian's open-ground wind fetch, which still carries construction and field dust off the sections that have not been built yet and pollen, and within a season the screen is carrying 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 Piazza Dr.
Scrubbing a screen in its opening pushes the 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 it through from both sides, let it dry and reseat it in the same opening it came out of. Screens are not interchangeable — a frame that has sat in one opening for fifteen years has taken that opening's shape, and swapping them is how you end up with gaps. Being this close to McMillan means the road-facing elevation is always the one that needs the most attention.
On newer builds the common finds are mesh that was never seated properly in the spline channel, and builder-grade frames that racked out of square during installation. Both are cheap to fix and we will point them out. We do not charge for a screen we cannot clean. If you are on W Monument Dr or one of the streets off it, we are likely already working nearby.
Bundling with a window service saves a trip charge and gets the sequence right. We will tell you honestly if you do not need the second service yet — a bundle you do not need is not a saving.
Decatur Estates is on our regular Meridian route, not a special trip. We already work W Piazza Dr, W Astonte St and W Monument Dr inside the subdivision. It routes off McMillan, which is how we keep travel out of the price. We schedule by area rather than by first-come, which keeps drive time down and means we can hold prices where they are. It also means there is usually a crew working within a few streets of you most weeks of the season.

Because it is real additional labour — every screen gets pulled, washed flat, dried and reseated. It is $50 added to a window service, which is far less than booking it on its own.
We handle them flat and supported, which is the gentlest way. On screens that are already brittle we will show you the risk before we pull them and let you decide.
Yes — they are tracked and reseated in the openings they came from. That matters more than people expect on older homes.
We do not re-screen. We will tell you which ones need it so you can get them redone rather than discovering it yourself next spring.
