Window Working

Window Working is a one-man Boston operation built around a simple pitch: don't replace the window, repair it. Greg runs the business out of Brighton and says on his own site that he's been fixing windows for over three years, focusing on old double-hung sashes — balances, glass, and hardware — rather than full replacements. That focus shows in what recent customers report. In the past few months, one homeowner had a broken window fixed within 24 hours; another got two foggy double-pane sashes reglazed for what they called a fair price, with the windows looking like new afterward; a third called the work on a new beveled window clean, fast, and level; and a fourth simply praised how efficient and skilled the job felt. Ninety Google reviews average 4.9 stars, and the last six months haven't added a single complaint to that. The history behind it runs deep too: 73 reviews dating back to 2018 across eight different platforms, including a separate 4.3-star average from ten reviews on Angi, where he's also credited with nine years in the trade. Its Angi history isn't spotless, though. One reviewer there described shoddy work and trouble pinning down a scheduled visit, and a couple of others thought the pricing ran higher than expected — worth asking about cost and timing up front. It's also worth knowing that Window Working isn't BBB-accredited, and the bureau currently lists the business as open less than six months, which doesn't line up with the nine years Angi credits Greg with or the Google reviews stretching back to 2018 — a discrepancy worth a quick question about before booking, even if it's likely just a fresh BBB filing under an existing business. For a stuck sash, foggy glass, or a historic double-hung window worth saving rather than replacing, Window Working is a reasonable call, especially if a bigger replacement company already quoted a full swap. Get the price and timeline in writing before he starts, and don't hesitate to ask about that one negative Angi review if it's on your mind.
