The Cash Flow Gaps Every Contractor Knows

You do the work. You win the bid. But the money doesn't move as fast as the job does.

Waiting on Invoice Payments

GCs and developers pay on net-30, net-60, even net-90 terms. Meanwhile your crew, materials, and subs need to be paid now. That gap kills cash flow on even the best jobs.

Materials Needed Before the Job Starts

Lumber, concrete, steel, roofing materials: suppliers want payment upfront or COD. You're fronting costs weeks before you see a dime from the client.

Equipment Breakdown at the Worst Time

A down excavator, a blown engine in a work truck, a failed compressor. None of it waits for a convenient time. Downtime costs more than the repair.

Funding Options

The Right Capital for Every Job

We match Texas contractors with the right lender for their specific situation. Not just whoever will approve them.

Working Capital 24-48 hrs
$10K - $500K

Cover payroll, materials, and subcontractor costs while waiting on invoice payments. Repay as revenue comes in.

Equipment Financing 3-7 days
$10K - $1M

Finance or refinance excavators, trucks, trailers, and heavy machinery. The equipment itself serves as collateral.

Business Line of Credit 2-3 days
$10K - $250K

Draw only what you need for each job. Repay it, draw again. Perfect for contractors juggling multiple projects.

Term Loan 2-5 days
$25K - $500K

Fixed monthly payments for planned expansion: hiring crews, buying a yard, or taking on commercial contracts.

Revenue-Based Financing 24-48 hrs
$5K - $250K

Repayments flex with your revenue. Pay more when jobs are active, less in slow months. Built for seasonal contractors.

SBA Loan 2-4 weeks
$50K - $5M

Lowest rates and longest terms for qualified contractors. Best for major equipment purchases or business acquisition.

Real Results

Texas Contractors We’ve Helped Fund

Every deal is different. Here’s what funding actually looked like for Texas contractors like you.

Working Capital $120,000

Houston concrete contractor won a $410K city paving contract but needed materials cash 45 days before the first draw. Bank said no, two years in business wasn’t enough. We funded the working capital in 28 hours. Job completed, $410K collected.

Funded: 28 hrs Credit: 592 In business: 2 yrs Revenue: $85K/mo
Revenue-Based Financing $200,000

Commercial framing subcontractor had three GC relationships and more work than his crew could handle. Needed capital to hire 8 more framers and cover payroll float. Revenue-based financing meant payments scaled with incoming draws, no fixed monthly pressure.

Funded: 24 hrs Credit: 614 In business: 3 yrs Revenue: $140K/mo
Business Line of Credit $25,000

Small plumbing and mechanical contractor needed a flexible buffer for material purchases across multiple active jobs. A line of credit let him draw what he needed per job and repay as clients paid out, no lump sum risk.

Funded: 2 days Credit: 578 In business: 18 mos Revenue: $32K/mo

Why Banks Turn Down Texas Contractors

Banks use criteria built for retailers and offices, not contractors. What they reject you for, and what we actually look at instead.

Bank Says

“Insufficient business credit history”

Banks want 3+ years of established business credit. Most contractors are under that threshold, even when they’re doing great work and banking strong revenue.

We Look At

Your last 3 months of bank deposits. If revenue is flowing, you qualify, no matter how many years you’ve been running.

Bank Says

“Revenue looks seasonal and inconsistent”

Construction slows in winter and surges in spring. Banks see that volatility as risk. They’d rather fund a flat-revenue retailer than a contractor with higher, variable deposits.

We Look At

Average monthly revenue across recent periods. Seasonal patterns don’t disqualify you. We underwrite around them.

Bank Says

“No commercial real estate to collateralize”

Traditional term loans and SBA products almost always require hard assets. Most contractors rent their yard, lease their equipment, and own nothing a bank will accept as collateral.

We Look At

Working capital and revenue-based products require zero collateral. Your business cash flow is the collateral.

Requirements

Do Texas Contractors Qualify?

Most do. Here is exactly what lenders look at, and what they skip.

Required

6+ Months in Business

Most products need at least 6 months of operating history. Equipment financing can go lower because the asset is the collateral.

Required

$10,000+ Monthly Revenue

Average monthly deposits over the last 3 months. Seasonal contractors with a strong summer and slow winter are evaluated on their trailing average, not their worst month.

Required

560+ Credit Score

560 is the floor for most working capital products. Higher scores unlock better rates and higher amounts. Equipment financing can go lower.

Required

Business Bank Account

3 months of business bank statements. No tax returns or audited financials needed for working capital. Just show revenue flowing through your account.

FAQ

Contractor Funding Questions

No. Most of our working capital and revenue-based funding products are unsecured, meaning no equipment or property collateral is required. Equipment financing is the exception, where the equipment itself is the collateral.
Yes. Sole proprietors, LLCs, S-Corps, and subcontractors all qualify as long as you have at least 6 months of business history and can show consistent monthly revenue through bank statements.
Lenders primarily look at your average monthly bank deposits (revenue), time in business, and credit score. They understand contractor cash flow is lumpy: large deposits followed by gaps. Your 3-month average is what matters most.
It's possible but harder. Lenders evaluate your trailing 3 months. If you're between jobs, they'll still look at your 3-month average. The best time to apply is when revenue is strong, not when you're desperate.
Working capital and MCAs fund in 24-48 hours of approval. Equipment financing takes 3-7 days. SBA loans take 2-4 weeks but offer the lowest rates. We'll tell you exactly which product fits your timeline.
To start: just basic contact and business info. To receive offers: 3 months of business bank statements and a valid ID. Most lenders don't require tax returns for working capital products. For equipment financing, you'll also need the invoice or quote for the equipment being purchased.
Yes. Lenders look at your actual bank deposits, not your outstanding receivables or retainage balances. Even with $300K in retainage on active contracts, your approval is based on the revenue that has already cleared your business account over the last 3 months.
No. Checking your options does not trigger a hard credit pull. Your score is not affected by submitting an application or receiving offers. A hard inquiry only happens if you accept an offer and proceed to funding.
