Licensing on Long Island

Long Island has its own contractor licensing. Nassau County and Suffolk County each require home improvement contractors to hold a county license, and building permits come from the town or village where the home is located. Always ask any contractor for the right county license number before signing. See our guide on renovation permits and contractor licenses.

Weather on Long Island

Salt air, coastal winds and freeze-thaw winters are hard on roofs and driveways. South Shore homes take the brunt of storms, while older driveways across the island crack as water freezes inside them. Sealing cracks early and keeping gutters clear add years to both.
