What wood window problems can you fix?

We repair common wood-window issues like rotted sills, sash cords/chains, pulleys, counterweights, and cracked or foggy glass, including reglazing.

What is window reglazing, and when is it needed?

Reglazing secures glass into a wooden sash using new glazing putty. It’s often needed when putty is crumbling or missing, panes are loose/rattling, or you have drafts/moisture around the sash.

What areas do you serve?

We serve Boston and nearby areas like Newton, Brookline, and Needham, plus additional towns listed on our Service Areas page (e.g., Chestnut Hill, Weston, Wayland, Norwood, Natick, Dover).

Do you offer a warranty and free quotes?

Why do many homeowners in Boston, MA need wood window repair?

In Boston, many homes still have older, original wood windows.

Wood window repair helps restore function and protect the window without replacing the entire unit.
