Window Woman of New England

Window Woman of New England takes the opposite approach from most window companies: rather than ripping out old sash and putting in vinyl replacements, the Amesbury shop repairs and restores the original wood windows already in a house. The company says it was started in 2003 by Alison Hardy, who began by fixing the windows in her own old house before turning the work into a business for friends and then paying clients, and it's now run by Hardy herself. The reviews on file are older, spanning 2023 to 2024, but they land solidly positive, which lines up with a 4.8-star average across 16 Google ratings. There isn't a large volume of written reviews yet, so this reads as a good early track record rather than an exhaustive one. Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (HIC #166156) is active with the state, and it's a member of the Window Preservation Alliance and the Amesbury Chamber of Commerce, both affiliations that line up with the restoration focus. Worth knowing before calling: with only 16 Google ratings behind that average, there's less of a track record to lean on than a busier shop would have. This is a good call for someone with genuinely old wood windows who wants them repaired rather than replaced, not a general glass-and-vinyl replacement outfit. Given the thinner review history, it's worth asking for a couple of references from recent restoration jobs before booking.
