Suffolk has ten towns, from Huntington and Babylon in the west to Southampton, East Hampton, Southold and Shelter Island on the East End. Every company below needs a Suffolk County home improvement license, and in East Hampton a town license as well. Each card says whether we have checked the county license yet.

The Suffolk lookup is the more useful of the two county tools for homeowners, because it shows complaints and violations, not just whether a license is active.
