About Prodigy Window Solutions

Specializing in window films and glass tinting solutions, we can instantly transform your space by reducing solar heat-gain and glare, eliminate all UV rays and reduce fading of furniture and floors. Our solutions will enhance your view, your daytime privacy and increase your earthquake protection from breaking glass 24/7. Manufacturers residential life-time warranties come standard and we stand behind our installations with our in-house installers that have been expertly protecting Greater Victoria residents for almost 25 years.

In 1999, the owner of Prodigy Window Solutions discovered that there was no international seismic window film specification. A specification for glazing that would enhance life safety by minimizing the potential for glass to cause bodily harm during an earthquake. Therefore, in the winter of 2000, he consulted on developing the world’s first window film specification for seismically upgrading glass. This was developed at the UBC Earthquake Testing Laboratory and is now recognized worldwide.

It’s forward thinking like this that has made Prodigy Window Solutions a trusted leader in our given industries and why you should trust us with your next project.

In 2003, he was invited to travel to Los Angeles to price ballistic window film for their City Hall; one of only 2 Canadian companies invited to bid.

His knowledge and professionalism has allowed him to complete 1000’s of residential, commercial and institutional installations across British Columbia. In his off-time, Paul likes to create and play music and has played in many cover bands around Victoria. He’s also a proud member of the Victoria Odd Fellows, Columbia Lodge #2 and a past Juan de Fuca Kinsmen.

We are very happy with our window film from Prodigy Window Solutions. The results were immediate and it has made a huge difference to our operations. Paul was knowledgeable, professional and efficient. Highly recommend!

We had film on the windows installed to reduce heat gain and glare to our west facing (and very large) windows. He over came our hesitation with his knowledge and long standing experience of the industry and precedents. It was amazing to watch him work and it turned out that he is a perfectionist installer as well…almost impossible to see that anything had been added. Lovely to experience an immediate heat reduction. Thank you Paul!

Highly recommend Prodigy Window Solutions. I had this film installed to protect against flying glass during an earthquake but it also has the added benefit of blocking UV rays and heat reduction. Paul did a great job and the price was very affordable with an excellent warranty.

Just an excellent product, but even better customer services! We looked at 3 different companies, had all three provide quotes. Prodigy listened to our needs, and provided us with a product that met those needs at a very reasonable price point. Since the installation of solar film, we have significantly reduced the heat signature in our home given our west facing windows! We strongly recommend Prodigy as your first choice here on lower Vancouver Island!
