Business Financing Solutions for Australian Contractors and Builders

Construction Business Financing Solutions Australia

Construction cash flow is tough. You buy materials, hire labour, and mobilise for projects months before you see payment. Staged billing, retentions, and slow-paying clients mean you are constantly funding tomorrow's work with yesterday's revenue. Elect Capital provides fast working capital to keep projects moving and payroll covered.

Industry Challenges
The Funding Challenges You Know Too Well
We understand the unique financial pressures of your industry. Here's how Elect Capital helps.
Upfront material costs before payment
You buy materials and pay subcontractors months before the client settles. Working capital covers project mobilisation costs so you can start work immediately.
Retention payments and staged billing
Staged payments and 5-10% retentions mean you're always waiting for money you've earned. Working capital bridges those gaps so payroll and suppliers stay current.
Winning new contracts requires capital
Bidding on larger projects often requires proof of financial capacity. Working capital strengthens your position and lets you take on bigger, more profitable jobs.

In Practice
How Businesses Like Yours Use Elect Capital
Material Purchase for a New Contract
A building contractor won a £400k renovation project but needed £80k upfront for materials and scaffolding. Elect funded the mobilisation costs within 24 hours, and the contractor completed the project on schedule.
Payroll Between Stage Payments
A fit-out company had six weeks between stage payments on a major commercial project. Elect working capital covered payroll for 15 staff during the gap, avoiding any disruption to the programme.
Plant Hire for a Larger Project
A groundworks firm was offered a project requiring equipment they did not own. Elect funded three months of plant hire, allowing the firm to take on a contract worth five times the cost of funding.
FAQ
Common Questions
Yes. Elect Capital provides unsecured working capital to UK construction businesses with no property, plant, or equipment required as collateral. Funding is based on your revenue and trading history.
Absolutely. Payroll bridging is one of the most common uses of our construction funding. Keep your team working while you wait for staged payments from clients.
We fund registered limited companies and partnerships. If you're a sole trader, you'd need to be operating as a registered business entity to qualify.
UK construction businesses can borrow between $25,000 and $1,000,000 through Elect Capital. The amount available depends on your monthly revenue and trading history, not the size of your project pipeline or asset base.
Apply before 2pm and receive a decision the same business day. Once you accept an offer, funds are typically available within hours. Construction businesses regularly use Elect to mobilise projects that would otherwise stall waiting for bank approval.
No. There is no hard credit check at the application stage. You can apply and receive an offer without any impact on your personal or business credit file.
