Funding built for construction cash flow
Contractors front the cost of labor and materials, then wait 30–90 days to get paid. That gap is the biggest cash-flow squeeze in the trade, and the right funding bridges it.
Ways contractors use funding
- Buying materials for a new job upfront
- Making payroll between progress payments
- Purchasing or repairing equipment
- Bridging 30–90 day client payment terms
- Taking on a bigger project than current cash allows
Options that work for construction
- Working capital / short-term loans
- Equipment financing for machinery and vehicles
- Merchant cash advance or revenue-based funding against receipts
- Invoice factoring to get paid now on outstanding job invoices
Equipment financing for startup contractors
Need a truck, excavator, or other machine to take on bigger jobs? Construction equipment financing uses the equipment itself as collateral, so even startup contractors and those with lower credit can often qualify — the asset secures the deal, and steady revenue improves your terms. New or used machinery both qualify.
What lenders look for
- Months in operation
- Monthly revenue and deposit history
- Consistency of cash flow
