BUENA VISTA Sunrooms helps light the way

March is finally here and the sun is shining again. Well, the sun almost always shines in West County, but the month of March still brings a warm feeling as winter is almost over and spring is almost here.

So I figured a good site this week would be one helpful in getting people some more light in their lives.

So here is the Web site of Buena Vista Sunrooms at www.sunroom.com

Since beginning in 1978, Buena Vista Sunrooms, which is on Quincy Street in Ventura, has done all sorts of rooms associated with glass fittings, from greenhouses to skylights.

As a result, the entire Web site is laden with information about whatever is available at the business. According to owner and Web master, Colin Hawkes, the site is 68 pages long. In a few weeks, the site will be expanded.

That doesn’t mean the site is necessarily complex. On the opening page, there is a menu on the left side. The right side has a wordy introduction, but in between the lines surfers can view the photo gallery (which is also in the menu). The rest of the page gives a list of what types of rooms and buildings can be offered.

“This site works efficiently for us,” Hawkes said. “We deal with any type of glass. Our idea is to have as much information available as possible. It’s like an on-line catalog. From the response we’ve gotten, a lot of people like it.”

One thing to like is the photo gallery, which is impressive and long. There are few Web sites with as many good photos as this one. While it may take time to download some of the images, the shots are worth it.

Most of the site is devoted to what types of sunrooms, swimming pool enclosures, skylights, greenhouses and patio rooms Buena Vista Sunrooms have to offer, with photos thrown in for visual effects. There is so much information on the site, many customers don’t even have to come to the actual shop, but can make an order or order a catalog from within the site. There is even a glossary of sunroom terms available to make sure customers don’t get confused.

“Our customers are able to look at what we have without going outside their houses,” Hawkes said. “They can compare prices and looks of our works with other businesses in the atmosphere of their homes, not at the store with some salesman watching over their shoulder.”

And spending more time at home can allow people more time to relax and catch some rays.
