Clean glass behind a dirty screen still looks dirty — and in South Cole the screens take a beating. South Cole sits in south Boise along Cole Road below Victory, running out toward Amity and Lake Hazel, where the homes are mostly a wide span from older farmsteads to 2000s and newer subdivisions. Here is how we approach screen cleaning on this side of Boise, what it costs, and when to book it.
A window screen is a filter, and here it filters open-field dust from the surrounding farmland and canal irrigation that leaves heavy mineral spotting. The mesh loads up until it holds a felt-like layer that cuts visible light noticeably and traps moisture against the frame. On a wide span from older farmsteads to 2000s and newer subdivisions with everything from small farmhouse sash to big modern two-story vinyl glass, the screens are often as old as the windows, and decades of loading does not come out with a garden hose.
Screens come out, get tagged so every one goes back in the opening it came from, and are washed flat with a soft brush and pure water rather than blasted with pressure. Pressure stretches mesh and pops spline, which is how screens end up loose and rattling. We clean both faces, rinse the frames and channels, dry them, and reinstall. The window track and sill get detailed while the screen is out — that is the part most crews skip.
We will tell you which yours needs. Mesh that is torn, stretched out of its spline, sun-rotted to the point it crumbles, or bent in the frame is past cleaning, and we would rather say so than charge you to wash a screen that needs replacing. We do not do rescreening ourselves, so there is nothing in it for us either way — you just get the straight answer.
Screens have to be cleaned and dried before they go back over clean glass, or the first rain drags the remaining residue down your windows and undoes the whole job. That is why screen cleaning belongs on the same visit as the window clean rather than as a separate appointment later.
Screen cleaning is $50 added to a window service. Every membership includes one free annual screen clean, which for most South Cole homes is the right rhythm — once a year, after the heaviest debris season has passed. Call or text (208) 453-6760 and we will fold it into your quote.

It depends on exposure, but open-field dust from the surrounding farmland and canal irrigation that leaves heavy mineral spotting is the driver here, so most South Cole properties end up on a recurring schedule rather than calling once and forgetting. We will give you an honest interval for your property rather than the one that bills the most.
