Dear Norm,
Just thought I'd drop a line to you and thank you for the excellent work that you did at our home with the lighting system that you installed. The "rail system" and attached "spot bulbs lights", which you attached to our living room ceiling, has completely changed the area, from an ordinary living room, into a show piece area. It looks great on the ceiling, the spot bulb lights, highlight my wife's pictures on the walls, and the under counter LED light strips are phenomenal, they give the whole area a penthouse look and feel.
The correct LED lighting strips you had installed under our cupboards in the kitchen, has made a huge positive appearance to our granite counter tops and back splashes. The Bright White LED strips produce light that make our granite show the quality of the granite and makes the kitchen look fantastic. I for one appreciated the no nonsense approach you take. You take suggestions, but if I disagree, (you have such a vast experience and knowledge on electrical and lighting systems), you make sure to guide one in the right direction and systems that would not just work, but would be perfect for the lighting situation. You truly know your field of expertise.
My wife and I like how everything turned out so much, that we want you to do our TV room, so it matches with the rest of the house. Can't wait to see how that looks.

Robinson Lighting is my recommended "go to place" for lighting for all my clients. I know that Robinson is able to provide a wide selection of lighting options for client projects, which is important in providing those final finishing touches to any home. Most importantly, the level of professionalism and expertise of the company's management, sales associates, and staff have directly contributed to the success of my business. As a decorator, I rely heavily on sales personal who have excellent product knowledge, and who provide my clients with exceptional customer service. Karen Thomas is my client contact at Robinson lighting. She provides my clients with prompt, professional service, and has excellent product knowledge when it comes to all the lighting products the store provides. Creating these valued relations with a retailer such as Robinsons is extremely important to me and my business, because it ensures my clients have a trusted source to find exactly what they are searching for.

Dear Brett & Leigh Robinson:
I wanted to drop you a note to especially thank you for your very generous ongoing support of The Y-Not? Downtown Y Anti-Poverty Program over the years! Robinson Lighting, as a community conscious business, has had a very important historical association with The Y-Not? Program going back to December 2008 when your father, the late Bruce Robinson, also a generous donor, was one of the founding, guiding, caring, well-connected board members of MacKinnon's Y-Not? Anti-Poverty Program Inc. Bruce also began to support the program several years prior to the formation of our board.
You of course are very aware The Y-Not? Program operates two separate anti-poverty programs - namely The RB Russell Y-Not? Downtown Y Anti-Poverty Program and The Stella/Knox Y-Not? Downtown Y Anti-Poverty Program. Via The RB Russell Downtown Y-Not? Program, which began in September 2002, with the support of generous donors such as yourselves, we have been empowered to send over 13,000 Winnipeg School Division inner city students to the Downtown Y for free Y Memberships in order to provide inner city children and youth with the opportunity to pursue a healthy, crime-free, alternative lifestyle. (Winnipeg, which has a serious and tragic poverty problem, is usually designated "The Child Poverty Capital of Canada".) Via The Stella/Knox Y-Not? Downtown Y Anti-Poverty Program, since its inception in July 2006, we have provided free Y Memberships for hundreds of families in need, youth at risk as well as numerous senior citizens.
The Y-Not? Program teaches inner city kids that the best response to life - is the creative response which includes not only mental and physical fitness but also postsecondary education as well as meaningful employment.
The program also teaches that regular exercise is the best and most healthy ant-depressant in the world!
For years Robinson Lighting, a community conscious leader, a key supporter of The Y-Not? Program, has empowered our utilitarian program to shed some considerable light on Winnipeg's poverty-stricken inner city.
Again I can't thank Robinson Lighting enough for your most generous annual support in helping thousands of inner city kids stay out of trouble as well as to help to stabilize family life throughout Winnipeg's inner city through the highly effective Anti-Poverty Strategy of free YMCA-YWCA Membership! In fact it's been an absolute pleasure to work with philanthropic Robinson Lighting!

I have found Robinson Lighting in Kelowna to be a great "go to source" for all my lighting needs when I am designing a project. They are helpful, a pleasure to work with, and prompt in filling my orders. A real must have when the resources in my own area are limited.

Thank you! Lighting a new home involves so many decisions - and there are so many options to choose from. Technological changes have made the lighting business pretty complex for the average home owner. It was so refreshing to talk to an expert like Norm. Not only was he knowledgeable about all the latest technology, but he understood how we wanted to grow into our home and the lighting changes that would be required as our ageing eyes would need better lighting. Norm provided guidance and explained the benefits of different types of lighting and incorporated this into our plans. Everything was looked after - from planning to purchase and installation. And it didn't end with the final payment. Follow up, as part of the business, to make sure we were happy with our choices showed true customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to use Robinson lighting in the
future.

"Proper lighting is a critical component to creating drama in homes, and requires an expert to be able to work with Owners to guide them through the process" I have known Norm Brown for almost 20 years, and have always trusted his opinions for the location and types of lighting required to enhance the details of the custom homes that we build for our clients. With his outgoing personality, extensive knowledge of lighting products and lighting design, he is the only person that we recommend to our clients to work with for their lighting packages.
