The gap every flooring company knows

You order material, pay the crew, finish the install, and then wait. Commercial general contractors may take weeks to release payment, and retainage can hold back part of the job even longer. Meanwhile, the next job needs material ordered this week.

Working capital is built for that gap. It is general-purpose funding you can use for whatever keeps the business moving: payroll, material, fuel, insurance or rent.

What we review

We keep it to the essentials:

No tax returns are required. FICO 500+ is considered, we start with a soft credit pull, and sole proprietors running their own install business can apply.

Lumpy deposits are normal here

Flooring revenue rarely arrives in neat weekly amounts. A showroom may see steady card sales, while an install company might see three large checks one month and one the next. Funders who know the trade look at the pattern across several months rather than a single slow stretch. Clear notes on big upcoming jobs can help your file make sense.

Sizing the request

Ask for what the gap actually costs, not the biggest number on the table. Add up the material for the jobs you have signed, the payroll you need to carry until those jobs pay, and a modest cushion for fuel and surprises. The amount we can offer depends mainly on your deposits and the obligations already coming out of your account. For illustration, a crew of six waiting on one commercial payout might need enough to cover three or four weeks of payroll plus material for the next job, not a full year of expenses.

Ready to apply

The application takes about 5 minutes, and funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses. Your offer will list the full repayment amount and the payment schedule before you accept, so you can check it against your receivables before committing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use working capital to buy flooring material?

Yes. Working capital is general-purpose, so material, payroll, fuel and rent are all common uses.

My GC pays slowly. Does that hurt my chances?

Slow pay is common in the trade. Funders look at your deposit pattern over about three months and any obligations already in place.

Do you need my tax returns?

No tax returns are required.

How much working capital can a flooring company get?

Funding ranges from $25,000 to $5,000,000. Your amount depends mainly on deposits and existing obligations.

Will the credit check affect my score?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score. FICO 500+ is considered.

Crew payroll $30,000.00
Tile and grout $22,000.00
Insurance renewal $9,500.00
Winter bridge $40,000.00

How to improve your chances

A few habits help a flooring company show steady cash flow.

  • Invoice promptly and follow up on slow payers
  • Deposit every job payment into the business account
  • Keep a short list of upcoming signed jobs
  • Avoid letting the account dip negative between payouts
