Screen mesh in Greenhill Estates holds far more canal silt than the glass beside it. The subdivision sits in southeast Meridian between Locust Grove and Eagle Road, just south of Franklin in 83642, and it is older than most of the city around it — recorded 1974–1978 across 3 phases. The pressurized irrigation here is mapped to the Boise Project Board of Control. It covers about 106 acres, enough that there is real variety in elevation and glass package.

Worth knowing first: Greenhill Estates is older than most of the city around it — recorded 1974–1978 across 3 phases (ZIP 83642, about 106 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 Eagle Road traffic film — brake dust and diesel particulate carried off the busiest arterial in Ada County 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. On Greenhill Estates lots that water comes off the Boise Project Board of Control's pressurized line, which is why the problem shows up street-wide rather than house by house.
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. It is the single most common thing we get called about in Greenhill Estates.
Screens of this age are brittle. Old fiberglass mesh goes chalky and tears at a touch, and original aluminum frames bend rather than flex. We will tell you which ones are past saving instead of handing back a torn screen and saying nothing. We do not charge for a screen we cannot clean. Greenhill Estates routes off Franklin, 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 separate trips — the setup and the drive 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. Tell us what you want when you book and we will sequence it properly.
Greenhill Estates is on our regular Meridian route, not a special trip. We already work E Springwood Dr, S Ravenswood Dr and E Autumn Way inside the subdivision. It routes off Franklin, 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. If two or three of you want it done, say so when you book and we will schedule you together.

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.
