Mount Kisco is a busy Northern Westchester village with a true downtown, Metro-North access, medical and retail corridors, older homes near the village center, and larger residential properties toward the Bedford and New Castle borders. Homes here deal with the same Hudson Valley exterior pressures year after year: winter freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rain, wind-driven storms, shade from mature trees, and roof drainage issues on sloped lots.
For chimney installation & repointing in Mount Kisco, the right contractor needs to understand more than the product being installed.

Meridian Contracting brings more than 25 years of exterior experience to each inspection, estimate, repair, and replacement.
