handyman / window repair in Allentown PA

Hello all,

Does anyone have recommendations for someone (exterior handyman?) who can repair leaking windows in Allentown, PA, or Lehigh Valley area?

We just purchased a single family house in south Allentown for buy-and-hold. We bought it from a flipper who renovated the entire house and put new windows in. Even though the windows are brand new, the installation is incorrect -- the weep holes are covered up by a trim board on the outside and does not let water out. We noticed water coming into the house during heavy rain last week.  This is for every window in the house.  Now we are trying to find handyman / window installer who can do this, but we haven't had luck... All the window companies in the area only install new windows and don't repair existing ones.  The person would need a tall ladder to reach upper floors.  

If anyone has any contacts I would really appreciate it!  It's crazy to have a problem like this 1 week after closing, when the place looks nicely renovated inside and out!
