Roofers in Oyster Bay

This page lists roofing companies based in the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County, in Massapequa, Hicksville, Syosset and Farmingdale. Nassau County licenses the work. Town noise code allows construction on Saturdays and keeps it off Sundays and holidays. Farmingdale is an incorporated village with its own permits, and each card says whether we have checked the license.

The morning after a big storm, two neighbors in the same town can call a roofer for completely different reasons. In the Town of Oyster Bay, that gap runs wide. The companies on this page work out of Massapequa, Hicksville, Syosset and Farmingdale, and the roofs they climb stretch from the Sea Cliff end of town down to the Massapequas.

Snow totals from Sea Cliff to East Massapequa

The National Weather Service storm log for the February 22 to 23, 2026 blizzard reads like a drive across this town. A public report 1 mile north-northwest of East Massapequa measured 24.5 inches. A report near Bethpage came in at 24.4, and Plainview logged 23.8. Head north and the totals drop. A trained spotter 1 mile north of Syosset measured 16.3 inches, and Sea Cliff logged 15.8. Yet the strongest Nassau wind gust in that same log, 59 mph, hit Bayville.

So the south side carried about eight more inches of snow from one storm, and the north side took the hardest gust in the county. Both leave marks. Heavy snow sitting on a cold eave is how ice dams start, and the ice dam guide walks through the process and why chipping them off does damage.

Wind is the other test. Ask each bidder which shingle line they plan to use and what wind rating its maker publishes, then hold those up against the asphalt shingle page. If your roof came through February with lifted tabs or a wet ceiling, start on the repair page before it turns into a replacement quote.

Saturday crews, quiet Sundays and Memorial Day morning

Section 156-4 of the town code makes construction, drilling and demolition noise across a residential property line a violation from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., Monday through Saturday, and at any time on a Sunday or holiday. Emergency work is the exception. In the unincorporated hamlets, that means a crew can start at 7 on a Saturday morning.

A second clause covers loading and unloading building materials, and it pushes the morning limit to 8 a.m. on Sundays and holidays. That one reaches the truck dropping off shingle bundles or a dumpster.

Chapter 151 adds a rule most homeowners have never heard of. On Memorial Day, trades and mechanical employments are barred from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the hours the town sets aside for parades and memorial exercises. Works of necessity get a pass, but the text never spells out what qualifies. Put a scheduled tear-off on a different day.

Villages write their own hours, and some run far stricter. The Village of Oyster Bay Cove limits construction machinery to 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, though work done entirely inside an enclosed building is exempt. If the house sits in one of the 15 villages, check with village hall before you agree to a start date.

Farmingdale, Massapequa and Hicksville shops

Our October 2026 snapshot counts eight roofing companies based in this town: three in Farmingdale, two in Massapequa, two in Hicksville, and one with a Syosset office among its several locations. All eight are tagged for roofing. None carries a siding, gutter or window tag yet, which only means nobody on our side has confirmed that service. Three of the eight matched the Nassau County register with high confidence, and the line under every name says where the check stands.

Farmingdale is the address to read twice. Nassau County lists it among the 15 incorporated villages inside the Town of Oyster Bay, so a house within the village pulls its permit from village hall. The name also crosses into Suffolk. The same weather service log files a reading 2 miles southeast of East Farmingdale, 27.5 inches, under Suffolk County. A Farmingdale business could be quoting a Nassau house or a Suffolk one.

For a Nassau address, the Nassau license guide shows how to run the lookup. For a house across the line, use the Suffolk license guide instead.

Before you call the Oyster Bay Building Division

The town never says in plain writing whether new shingles alone need a permit. The code sections, deadlines and forms sit on the Oyster Bay roofing permit guide. Read it before the first estimate visit, not after.

Then there is the money. Nassau County’s community development office says the Town of Oyster Bay runs its own residential rehabilitation program, with its own process, separate from the county’s. The financing page covers that county program and the other ways Long Island owners pay for a roof. The roof replacement cost page has the published price ranges to measure a quote against. And since gutters often come down during a tear-off, look over the gutter page before the crew arrives.
