About Us

At The Auto Protectors, we’re pioneers in vehicle protection technologies. Founded in 1983, our family-run business has had the opportunity to service Calgarians with their smallest and biggest vehicle needs.

In 2003, we introduced paint protection film, setting an industry standard. In 2015, we further enhanced our services with ceramic coatings, providing unparalleled protection for our customers’ vehicles.

Our status as a family business sets us apart. With my entire family involved at one point, including my mother answering phones and my sister working in the shop, our familial commitment translates into exceptional service for our customers.

Family Business Since 1983

Founded by my father, The Auto Protectors initially focused on dealership protection packages and detailing services. However, our dedication to excellence and evolving customer needs led us to expand our offerings over the years.

I’m Darren Elia, and I’ve been part of this business since my teenage years. From summers spent learning the ropes to now running the business full-time, it’s been a rewarding journey witnessing our growth and commitment to top-notch service.
