What is construction finance?
Construction finance can include a range of assets, from bulldozers to dump trucks.
Construction finance is often used to purchase expensive equipment that is required for construction businesses to function.
We can arrange funding for the purchase of new and used construction equipment.
Our specialist construction team will be able to help with any financial needs you might have. Also having in-house property specialists means we can assist if you’re a property developer or are looking to invest in a new site.
Some of the construction equipment we can finance
We offer a range of construction finance solutions, including:
Excavator finance – An excavator is a primary piece of construction equipment. Whether it’s a crawler, backhoe or suction excavators, adding to your fleet or replacing older models, we can offer flexible finance solutions.
Crane finance - Whether it’s a single tower crane to add to your fleet or a collection of railroad cranes, we can help with the finance.
Bulldozer finance - Bulldozers are present on most construction sites and are often one of the most important pieces of yellow plant a construction business owns. A bulldozer can be an efficient way of moving things around a site, but it can be a costly piece of equipment to buy.
Dump truck finance - Whether your business is in farming, construction or any other industry that requires the use of heavy loading and commercial vehicles such as dump trucks, having this equipment is paramount to your business’s success.
Access platform finance - An access platform can be used for maintenance access, manufacturing facilities and even large warehouses, whether it’s a snappy tower, semi-stationary or powered platform, we can help with the finance.
Scaffolding finance - Scaffolding is essential when completing building projects. Ensuring safety for your staff, easy access to different areas of the site, and making sure the building process is efficient. We can offer flexible finance for this product.

How does construction finance work?
We work with you and the lender of choice to determine the required loan amount, with the lender specifying the terms and conditions. Following your acceptance of the terms and conditions, you will get the full amount and typically make monthly repayments with interest for the specified period of time.
Is construction finance right for your business
Construction finance provides useful working capital for businesses that are:
· Contractors or subcontractors in the UK construction industry.
· Operating within a contract, framework agreement or a purchase order.
· Requiring a strong cashflow to expand.
If you want to avoid the hassle of your customers’ overdue payments or if you do not have the money to cover your commitments before being paid, construction finance could be the solution.
Why your business might require construction finance?
A business might need construction finance for several reasons including:
· Helps you to meet your deadlines and targets.
· Assists with the payment of materials, equipment, and staff hire.
· Flexible and short-term option.
· Receive funds quickly.
· Costs less than an overdraft facility.
· Helps maximise working capital.
How long does it take to secure construction finance?
Construction finance often varies and depends on the business and type of finance required.
Typically, it can take from 48 hours to a couple of days to get finance in place for your new purchase. Finance applicants for construction finance should have all their accounts in order and available for inspection, just like with any other type of business funding. Bank statements, the last three to five years’ worth of certified accounts and specifics on assets and liabilities can all be required.
