ProVia’s history

At ProVia, we are honored and privileged to serve the remodeling and building community. Every employee takes seriously the trust that professionals and homeowners place in them to manufacture building products that excel in durability, energy efficiency, security, and long-lasting beauty. Our commitment to caring for details can be seen in our dedication to manufacturing best-in-class products, serving and appreciating our customers, and caring for our family of employees.

The story of ProVia begins in 1977 with the initiative and dedication of founder Bill Mullet and the Providence of God, and carries through to today under the steady hand of president Brian Miller. Along the way, the ProVia family of products has grown, as well as the cherished family of employees and customers who contribute to the success of the company. Our achievements are the result of many hands working together.
