Manufacturer

What is ProVia?

ProVia is an Ohio-based window and door manufacturer built on direct-to-dealer distribution. The company specializes in premium vinyl and fiberglass windows with a strong custom-color program—a rarity in the vinyl window market. ProVia's narrower lead times and dealer-focused model make it the Twin Cities default for full-house replacements.

Product lines

ProVia's three lines, side by side

Endure, Aspect, and Espire. Three tiers. Three price ranges. All three rated for Minnesota's -20°F to 95°F climate.

ProVia Endure premium vinyl window interior view

Premium vinyl

Endure — premium vinyl, Twin Cities default

Heavier frame, Comfort-Tech triple-pane Low-E glass standard, custom colors and grilles. $700–$1,400 per window installed. The line we recommend for full-house replacements when the homeowner plans to stay 10+ years.

ProVia Aspect mid-tier vinyl-clad window interior

Mid-tier vinyl-clad

Aspect — vinyl-clad mid-tier

Standard frame, triple-pane Low-E, ENERGY STAR rated. $1,100–$1,800 per window installed. The line that fits when the budget can stretch past Endure but doesn't need wood interior.

Wood interior

Espire — wood interior, higher-end

Wood-interior premium line. $1,600–$2,500 per window installed. The line that fits Edina Country Club, Wayzata lake homes, and other premium Twin Cities homes where the interior reads as wood from the inside but performs as vinyl-clad outside.

Glass technology

Comfort-Tech triple-pane glass

ProVia's Comfort-Tech system pairs triple-pane Low-E glass with argon gas fill to reduce winter heat loss and summer cooling load. ENERGY STAR rated and eligible for the federal IRA 25C tax credit—up to $600 per year in savings.

Protection

Lifetime transferable warranty

ProVia's lifetime limited warranty on frame, sash, and glass transfers to the next homeowner. Transferability is rare in the window industry and adds measurable resale value to your home.

Aesthetics

Deep colors that hold up

ProVia's custom-color program delivers deep, saturated finishes that resist UV fading—something traditional vinyl struggles with. Twin Cities homes no longer need to settle for white or beige.

Why ProVia through Modex

Why Modex installs ProVia

Modex installs three window brands by deliberate choice — ProVia, Kolbe, and Pella. ProVia fills the premium-vinyl tier with competitive pricing, faster lead times, and a strong custom-color program.

Three brands, your call

ProVia, Kolbe, Pella — pick the one that fits the home

Most Twin Cities window contractors install one brand and route every customer to that brand whether it fits or not. Modex installs three by deliberate choice — ProVia for premium vinyl, Kolbe for premium wood, Pella for the budget tier. We quote across brands when the homeowner wants to compare.

Visualizer

Try ProVia windows on your own home

ProVia's Home Exterior Design Center lets you upload a photo of your house and try Endure, Aspect, and Espire windows in real-time — plus ProVia doors, siding, stone, and roofing if you're planning a broader exterior project. Helpful for narrowing color, profile, and grid options before we measure the openings.

The Design Center is a free tool hosted by ProVia (opens in a new tab). Modex installs ProVia — we are not a ProVia Authorized Dealer; product warranty is direct from ProVia.

Why us

Why choose Modex for ProVia

Three things Modex does on every ProVia install that most Twin Cities window contractors don't.

Multi-brand installer

ProVia, Kolbe, and Pella by deliberate choice — three brands so the right one fits the home, not the one that fits the contractor's distribution deal.

Owner-led on large jobs

Ownership-level oversight on every install $40K and above — measurement check, opening prep review, and final inspection. Not a subcontractor handoff.

Lifetime workmanship — for as long as you own the home

Modex backs the install for as long as you own the home. ProVia's lifetime limited warranty on frame, sash, and glass is separate, direct from the manufacturer, and transferable to the next homeowner per ProVia's terms.

The questions Twin Cities homeowners ask about ProVia

Authorized-dealer status, line comparisons, warranty transferability, install timeline, and IRA tax credits — the five we hear on most estimates.

Window brands

Three brands Modex installs — not one

Most Twin Cities window contractors install a single brand and route every customer to that brand whether it fits or not. Modex installs three by deliberate choice. The right brand for the home, not for the contractor.

ProVia

Endure, Aspect, Espire

Premium vinyl and wood-interior. Lifetime warranty transferable per ProVia's terms. $700–$2,500 per window.

Kolbe

Heritage and VistaLuxe

Premium wood and aluminum-clad. Custom architectural shapes. Best fit for historic restorations and Wayzata lake homes.

Pella

250 Series, Lifestyle Series

Mid-tier vinyl through premium wood. Strong distribution across the Twin Cities. The budget-conscious choice.

What backs a Modex window install

ProVia's lifetime limited warranty on the windows, plus the Modex lifetime workmanship warranty on the install — and the third-party accreditation that backs the paperwork.
