Contractor work for Cedarhurst homes and apartments
Cedarhurst is an incorporated village right next to Lawrence, and its heart is Central Avenue, the shopping street that runs through the village. Around it you find a mix of single-family houses, two-family homes and apartment buildings, which means a Cedarhurst contractor spends a lot of time on turnover work and on updating older units one room at a time.
EM Construction works out of Lawrence, a short drive from Cedarhurst, so scheduling a walkthrough and returning for finishing touches is easy. We take on the kinds of projects Cedarhurst homeowners and small landlords call about most: repainting, patching walls, replacing floors and doors, and updating kitchens and bathrooms.
The Cedarhurst station on the Long Island Rail Road's Far Rockaway Branch is a few minutes' walk from much of the village, and many residents commute to the city. For busy households and owners who are not around all day, we coordinate access and keep communication simple, in English or Spanish.

Village jurisdiction for permits
Cedarhurst is its own incorporated village, so permits for larger renovations go through the village rather than the Town of Hempstead offices that cover nearby hamlets. If your project touches structure, plumbing or wiring, ask the village what applies to your address.
Multi-unit buildings mean access planning
Many Cedarhurst properties have several units or shared entrances and stairwells. Moving materials, protecting common areas and coordinating with neighbors are part of the job, and we plan for them up front.
Older buildings, uneven surfaces
Floors and walls in older Cedarhurst buildings are often out of level. New flooring or tile needs a prepared surface, so we check before ordering materials.
Quick turnarounds for landlords
Owners who need a unit ready for a new tenant want predictable timing. Tell us your move-in date and we will work backward from it.
Questions from Cedarhurst homeowners
Do you serve Cedarhurst even though you are based in Lawrence?
Yes. Cedarhurst is next door to Lawrence, and we take on projects in the village. Call (929) 803-5357 to set up a walkthrough.
Can you repaint an apartment between tenants?
Yes. We patch, prime and paint units and can work around your move-in date. Tell us the timeline when you call.
Do I need to go to the Village of Cedarhurst for permits?
For work that needs a permit, yes, since Cedarhurst is an incorporated village with its own building department. Cosmetic work like painting and flooring often does not need one, but check before structural, plumbing or electrical changes.
Do you handle jobs when I cannot be at the property?
We can coordinate access and updates by phone or text. Let us know how you want to handle keys and communication when we quote the job.
