The Calm Before the Storm

While no one in our beautiful part of the world is expecting a Hurricane Harvey or Hurricane Irma to blow our way, the rains will be coming this year and it’s time to get ready. If you skipped the chance that your spring cleaning would include your rain gutters, you really shouldn’t be putting this off any longer.

If your existing gutters are hanging by a prayer, or some parts seem to be missing, or they’re clogged with errant leaves and all manner of detritus, they won’t be much good to you when the skies open up.  You don’t want to be standing outside your house, maybe in the dead of night, dressed in your yellow slicker and your waders, squinting and looking up at the roof line wondering why the water is coming down the side of your house in torrents. And you absolutely do not want to be on a ladder inspecting the damage. And we can pretty much guarantee that there will be damage to your house if this happens. As we all know, damage is expensive. A whole lot more expensive than, as the cowboys used to say, cutting it off at the pass.

Have you seen those ads recently on TV for gutters that keep the leaves out? We offer them, too! Please Take A Look at our UltraFlo and play the video. This is an option that just might interest you.

And if you’re thinking of sprucing up your house for the holidays, don’t forget the gutters! If they don’t look good, your house won’t look good. We’re happy to talk with you about the working part of your gutters as well as the aesthetic side. As hard as it is to believe, Thanksgiving is right around the corner. (Don’t tell the turkeys.)

We have over 35 “5 Star” reviews on Google and we’re proud of every one of them! Please give us a call at 805.267.6745 and we’ll come out and give you a free estimate on the inspection and even new gutters, if that’s what you have in mind. If we see a problem we’ll give you an estimate and fix you up on time and on your budget and with our guarantee. We won’t be undersold. Hand to heart.

And please make a note that we offer 24-hour emergency service. It wouldn’t hurt to stick our phone number up on your refrigerator.  You just never know.

We will meet all of your needs from Ojai to Ventura to Oxnard. We are happy to work with you in any way that we can. Just click here for a Free Estimate.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Gardening with Rainwater

Now that the rain has let up a little bit and you’ve had a chance to walk around on your squishy ground and check out to see how the plants are doing, have you noticed that they seem happier? Plants love rainwater. Why? Because of the ideal pH, lack of “hard water” minerals, additives, and conditioners, and the presence of beneficial nutrients.

In rainwater the pH is typically more acidic, usually between 5 and 7, than that of your regular water. Along with being better for your plants, it’s also better for the soil. And it contains dissolved nitrogen which plants thrive on.

If you think you’ve been doing your eco-friendly best by using grey-water (which is water from a washing machine or your shower or a bathroom sink) you might want to re-think this. It can have a pH as high as 10.5 once it gets to the garden depending on the types of soaps and detergents that you used. Use rainwater to flush out your soil and keep the pH balance in check.

Okay. You get it. But it rained and you didn’t collect any rainwater, so now what? Lucky for you, the rain isn’t done with us yet. You still have time to get a rain barrel or two. Or three. Please take a look at our Rain Barrel options and we know you’ll find a style you like. We’ll even help you through the rebate process.

When we come out to talk to you about the barrels, we’ll be happy to take a look at your rain gutters to make sure they’re operating as they should. If we see a problem we’ll give you an estimate and fix you up on time and on your budget and with our guarantee. We won’t be undersold. No kidding.

And if the rainwater works as well on your plants as we expect it will, you might want to think about showing some of them at the Ventura County Fair this August. Imagine... rainwater sending you home with a blue ribbon!

Please give us a call at 805.267.6745 and speak to a real live person. We offer 24-hour emergency service in case you’ve been a little, um, lax in taking care of your gutters.

We will meet all of your gutter needs from Ojai to Ventura to Oxnard. We are happy to work with you in any way that we can. Just click here for a Free Estimate.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Santa’s Coming!

You’ve just put the silver away from Thanksgiving and finally vacuumed under the dining room table. Your thoughts have turned to the holidays, be they Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanza. Whichever holiday you celebrate, and even if you don’t, Santa is coming! (You can tell from the TV commercials and your full email inbox, and the ads that fly out of your newspaper.) And you certainly don’t want to be a Scrooge and have him slide off your roof via your damaged gutters. Ouch.

It hasn’t rained much this year in our areas, but it’s picking up and there are promises that there are more and heavier rains on the way. While it’s still dry out, this is a great time to have your gutters inspected. Give us a call and we’ll come out and give you a professional inspection, and if there’s no problem (yay for you!) we won’t pretend that there is one. If there is a problem, we’ll give you an estimate and fix you up on time and on budget and with our guarantee.

While you’re out there looking at your gutters and trying to decide if you want to call us or not, think about the colors of your gutters for a minute. Did you know that you can spruce up the look of your home without having to paint the outside? We offer over 35 colors of gutters! We can match your paint or find a wonderful contrasting color. You can think of it as giving your house a present, or of giving yourself one as you start the New Year. Bright and shiny things are fun.

Then, if you want to dress your home up a little bit more, we can talk about rain chains and rain barrels, and we’ll even take you through the rebate process for the barrels. Oh, won’t the neighbors be envious?

Please give us a call at 805.267.6745 and speak to a real live person. Our goal is to give you the customer service you should expect and that you deserve, and when it comes to pricing, we won’t drive you crazy over a few dollars. That’s not how we do business. And we won’t be undersold.

At Randy’s Rain Gutters we stand behind our work, and it shows in how we get the job done. We don’t make promises we can’t keep. We’re the good guys. So good, in fact, that we offer 24-hour emergency service.

We will meet all of your needs from Ojai to Ventura to Oxnard. We are happy to work with you in any way that we can. Click here for a Free Estimate.

Ho ho ho. We look forward to hearing from you!

Chirp Chirp! Birds in my Gutters?

In North America ornithologists estimate that there are 650 species of birds. That’s a whole lotta birds, so it shouldn’t be that surprising if we find one or more of them nesting in roofline gutters from time to time. Which isn’t exactly where we’d like to see them. We like to watch them fly, and sometimes we like to feed them, and a lot of people get out their binoculars to count and name and track them. But a lovely bird can become a pest if it wants to make your home its own.

There are several suggested ways to stop this from happening before it starts. Because once a bird, either alone or with its friends and family, has selected your house, it’s harder to get him and them out.

You can put up some decoys that might just keep those birds flying over instead of stopping. Scary Eyes – just click to see.

Decorative owls or eagles placed at the top of your house or near the gutters might work. You can also try a product called Scary Eyes which claims some good results.

Think snakes! Put some of the rubber ones in your gutters, but make sure they’re sturdy enough to not get washed away.

You can find bird repellents that don’t harm the birds, but give off a smell that they really don’t like. Once they get a sniff, they’ll be house hunting elsewhere.

Sound emitting devices that work with speakers you place around the roofline. They have a sound that birds can hear, but humans can’t. Birds don’t like the sound at all.

You can use gutter guards or hardware cloth that is like a galvanized steel mesh. You put it over your gutters and wrap it tightly to them with wires. Birds will never get in.

If birds are driving you to distraction, please give us a call at 805.267.6745 and speak to a real live person. We’ll answer your questions and give you a Free Estimate either on the phone, or from our website. Just click Free Estimate. Our goal is to give you the customer service you should expect and that you deserve. We know that you work hard for your money and we won’t quibble with you over a few dollars. That’s not how we do business. We’ll do our very best to take care of all of your needs within your budget.

We offer an aesthetically pleasing and functional solution to both keep birds and critters from making a home in your gutters and make the work of cleaning gutters virtually unnecessary! Our UltraFlo Steel PowderCoated Screen – “No more gutters to climb or clean. UltraFlo offers you the perfect solution to prevent leaves and other debris from clogging your gutters. Strong, 22-gauge galvanized steel with a small hole design and powder coated with "Ultra Coat" snap locks into your gutter and is professionally installed over your existing 5" or 6" gutters. UltraFlo does not lift or penetrate your roof shingles and will handle any rainfall... keeping leaves, pine”

At Randy’s Rain Gutters we stand behind our work. Sadly, there are so many people who don’t enjoy what they do for a living. But we do! And it shows in how we get the job done. We’re on time, on budget, and you get our guarantee.

We will meet all of your needs from Ojai to Ventura to Oxnard. We are happy to work with you in any way that we can. Please give us a call. Your home and its maintenance are probably the largest investment that you have. Take care of it. And we’ll be as nice to the birds as we are to you.

About the City

We wanted to take this opportunity to share some on the beautiful city that is Ventura...

The City of Ventura is located between Malibu and Santa Barbara on the blue Pacific Ocean, overlooking Anacapa and Santa Cruz islands. Ventura was just named one of The 10 Best Places to Live Now, see the Men's Journal article here, March/April 2015 - Start a business, surf on your lunch break, buy your dream home -- here are 10 cities and towns where life is good.

Fun Facts

·         Ventura is officially the City of San Buenaventura (commonly called San Buenaventura before 1891)

·         The nickname "Ventura", according to historians, has its origins in a decision made by the Southern Pacific Railroad about 100 years ago. It was easier to print Ventura on railroad tickets than San Buenaventura

· The original inhabitants of the area were native Chumash people, who called it Shisholop ("In the mud") in the Chumash language

· The movies Swordfish and Little Miss Sunshine were partially filmed in Ventura, as were parts of the movie Erin Brockovich

· Ventura was fictionalized as 'Madison City' by long-time resident Erle Stanley Gardner in his 'D.A.' Series of crime novels featuring Doug Selby, crusading District Attorney of a rural California county

· Ventura hosts five college campuses, the Brooks Institute of Photography, Ventura College of Law, Southern California Institute of Law, Santa Barbara Business College and Ventura College

· Ventura is famed for the quality and frequency of the surfing conditions at spots such as Surfer's Point at Ventura County Fairgrounds

· Downtown's Majestic Ventura Theater is an early 20th-century landmark. A venue for concerts, it has seen performances from legendary artists such as The Doors, Pearl Jam, Van Halen, X, Ray Charles, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, Fugazi, Incubus, Tom Petty, They Might Be Giants, and Johnny Cash, as well as some of the city's most successful homegrown artists like Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Army of Freshmen

· One of the most recognizable landmarks in Ventura is "Two Trees" which are two prominent lone trees on a hilltop, visible from most of Ventura

· The famous character, lawyer "Perry Mason", created by Erle Stanley Gardner, had his fictional law practice and did much of his early writing in Downtown Ventura. The building where his law offices were housed, at California and Main Streets bears his name on a state historical marker
