Highlights
- Long-running shop — BBB traces the business to 1972

- Thin review record — 4.1 stars from just eight ratings
- No BBB rating — bureau cites insufficient information
- One employee on file — ask about crew size and scheduling
Fifty-four years of replacement windows and siding out of one North Andover address, run by the man whose name is on the truck. A.J. Walsh & Sons is about as small and as old-school as a contractor gets: BBB traces the business to 1972, incorporated in Massachusetts in 1980, with Arthur Walsh as president and a single employee on file. What that buys you is focus. This is a windows-and-siding shop, not a general remodeler, and it has stayed in that lane for decades. The public record is thin. Google shows 4.1 stars across eight ratings — a middling score on a very small sample, and not enough to say much about how any one job goes. BBB does not grade the company at all, saying it lacks sufficient information to issue a rating, and the business is not BBB accredited. A one-person operation is worth planning around: ask directly about scheduling, who is actually on your roof or ladder, and how long the job will take. Get the scope, materials and warranty in writing, and ask for a few recent local jobs you can go look at — with a record this quiet, a homeowner reference is worth more here than a star average.
