Contractor for Adding a Dormer Window?

[olliesix.livejournal.com]

We are hoping to add a window to a window-less bedroom in our Somerville mansard home, requiring a 'dormer' window. This seems to be a medium size job that some contractors are not interested in. Any suggestions on who might be suitable? I'm sure there are many Somerville folks who have done this before. And any tips with Inspectional Services? I assume this is a routine thing (the neighbors have no windows facing this side of our house, so there shouldn't be an issue with privacy). Thanks!
