Tuscany Lakes screens grey out because the mesh filters irrigation silt out of the air. The subdivision sits in southeast Meridian between Locust Grove and Eagle Road, just south of Victory in 83642, and it is twenty-odd years old, recorded 2004–2007 across 3 phases. About 57 acres, compact enough that we can usually do several homes in one visit. The Boise Project Board of Control supplies the pressurized irrigation on these lots.

Worth knowing first: Tuscany Lakes is twenty-odd years old, recorded 2004–2007 across 3 phases (ZIP 83642, about 57 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 valley dust, plus the winter inversion that holds particulate down at ground level for weeks at a time 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 Tuscany Lakes 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. That holds across 83642 generally, not just on this plat.
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. At about 57 acres, Tuscany Lakes is small enough that neighbours booking together is genuinely cheaper for everyone.
Tuscany Lakes is on our regular Meridian route, not a special trip. We already work E Palermo Dr, E Serchio St, S Lamone Way and S Basilica Way inside the subdivision. It routes off Victory, 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.
We clean and reseat screens. We do not re-mesh or re-frame them. Where a screen is too brittle to survive being pulled we will show you before we touch it, 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.

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.
