Fixing old windows with broken weights

I bought an old Victorian in Ditmas 10 days ago and realized for the 1dt time today that ALL of the windows on the 1st floor are broken. The ropes are cut & so none of the upper panes stay up unless the windows are locked. Does anyone here know how much it will cost to have them repaired? Wide molding will have to be taken off I imagine & then the windows taken out to the rope can be re-strung & attached. I need a sense of $ cost per window & if possible a suggestion on who can do the work. My floors are being refinished & I have no way to air the plae out so I can work there. Thank you! (we move in on the 23rd of Feb & there’s MUCH to do in the interim!)
