Construction Finance

Unlock the cash that’s tied up in construction contracts

Construction Finance Facts

Construction businesses can often face cashflow challenges whilst waiting for customers to pay.

New contracts are great for business, but they also bring with them new expenses, such as buying supplies upfront and paying additional wages, often leading companies to need to tap into their working capital before they receive their first payment.

Construction Finance frees up the liquidity needed to complete existing contracts whilst looking to take on new ones so that growth ambitions aren’t slowed down.

What is Construction Finance?

Construction Finance is a type of Working Capital Finance tailored to the needs of businesses within the Construction industry. It is a great way to release the cash locked in lengthy construction contracts prior to a payment certificate being issued. This means you can still offer your customers the same payment terms as before, but you get to access some of the contract’s cash value straight away – we deposit the funds into your account within 24 hours of you raising a request.

New contracts bring new expense – from having to buy supplies upfront to paying employees weeks, or even months, before your first stage payment. Construction Finance releases the cash that’s owed to you, typically within a week. Even before completion certificates have been issued. It takes the pressure off late payment concerns, even during lengthy contracts. And it gives you the financial security to secure bigger contracts without worrying about your cashflow.
