Photo Shoot!

image2 (5)

Last week we were called by Booje Media to install this chandelier for a photo shoot for designer Jillian Harris. The date was changed a few times and the timeline was tight….pick up the fixture from Robinson Lighting have it installed  by 9 am and remove it by 11 am. Booje was thrilled that (of course!) we were on time and everything went off without a hitch.

Another busy week in the books!  The homeowners can now enjoy their newly renovated and lighted kitchen. The addition of the under cabinet and in cabinet lighting really highlights this masterful renovation. Due to space constraints the kitchen did not gain any square footage, but now appears spacious and bright. For all your electrical needs you can count on Wicks Electric to get the job done to perfection!

One of our many important jobs this week includes an electrical update at the Terminal City Club’s office tower.  Founded in 1892 the Terminal City Club is Vancouver’s oldest and most pretigious club. When CPR finally completed the cross-Canada rail line to its terminus in Vancouver in 1891, a group of Vancouver businessmen formed the Terminal City Club as a gathering place for the city’s most influencial businessmen to meet, relax and, of course, do business!
