Fairview Acres screens grey out because the mesh filters irrigation silt out of the air. It sits in Garden City south of Ustick, between Orchard and Federal in 83714, and it is one of the city's original subdivisions, recorded 1945–1949 across 7 phases. At roughly 628 acres it is one of the larger communities in the city, and that scale is part of the quote.

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 river-bottom damp that keeps north elevations from drying, plus traffic film off Chinden Boulevard and State Street 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. With 7 phases recorded, the older streets show it further along than the newest ones, and we price accordingly.
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 Ustick means the road-facing elevation is always the one that needs the most attention.
Garden City is a narrow strip along the Boise River, and almost everything about the glass here follows from that: river-bottom humidity and shade on one side, Chinden and State Street traffic film on the other, and a housing stock that runs from 1950s cottages to brand-new riverfront townhomes within the same block. On a Fairview Acres property that shows up as a shorter useful interval than the same work would hold somewhere else in the valley, which is worth knowing before you decide how often to book. Fairview Acres routes off Ustick, so getting here is not a special trip.
This pairs naturally with a window service, 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.
Fairview Acres is on our regular Garden City route, not a special trip. We already work N Kay St, E 46th St, N Reed Ln and N Veterans Memorial Pkwy inside the subdivision. It routes off Ustick, 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.
