Why material stock ties up an electrical shop's cash

Copper wire, breakers, panels, conduit, fittings and lighting fixtures all have to be on the truck before an electrician can bill a single hour. On a service upgrade or a tenant fit-out, the material bill can land weeks before the customer pays. Supply houses also move prices and lead times around, so buying in volume when stock is available often saves more than it costs.

We built inventory funding for electrical contractors around that gap. You buy the material when it makes sense, and repayment comes out of the deposits the finished work produces.

What electrical contractors stock up on

Which product fits a material purchase

For a one-time bulk buy, working capital for electrical contractors gives you a lump sum you can put to work right away. If you restock in waves through the year, a business line of credit lets you draw for each order. Shops with card or ACH deposits that rise and fall with the job schedule sometimes prefer revenue-based financing, where payments follow revenue.

An example, for illustration

For illustration: a four-truck residential and light commercial shop learns its main distributor is raising wire prices next month and that a run of commercial panels is finally back in stock. Buying three months of wire and the panels for two upcoming jobs now would mean pulling most of the operating account down at once. Instead, the owner takes working capital sized to the purchase, keeps the operating account intact for payroll and fuel, and repays out of the deposits from the jobs that material supports. The point is not to stockpile everything. It is to buy the material you know you will use when buying it makes sense, and to keep enough cash on hand to run the shop in the meantime.

What we look at

We review about three months of business bank statements. Deposit consistency matters more than a single big month. FICO scores from 500 are considered, no tax returns are required, and the first step is a soft credit pull. Sole proprietors can apply. Qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the funds to buy from more than one supply house?

Yes. Working capital is not tied to a single vendor, so you can split purchases across distributors for the best availability and pricing.

How much inventory funding can an electrical contractor get?

We fund from $25,000 to $5,000,000. The amount offered depends mainly on your deposits and any existing obligations showing on your statements.

Do I need to show supplier quotes?

No quotes are required to apply. Having a rough idea of what you plan to buy helps you choose an amount that matches the job pipeline.

Will my credit be hit when I apply?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score.

Can a one-person electrical business apply?

Yes. Sole proprietors can apply as long as the business has steady deposits.

Reels of wire $22,000.00
Switchgear order $48,000.00
LED retrofit stock $31,500.00
Van restock $12,500.00
