Financing for Roofing Contractors
Roofers need cash for vehicles, gear and bridging slow builder payments. A fitted-out ute or truck, edge protection and scaffold, a roof hoist, power tools, or a run of sheeting and flashings for a big job can reach the ~$70,000 mark, and much of that lands before the builder pays. A working-capital or equipment facility lets you kit out a second crew, take on bigger commercial roofs, and cover materials and wages between progress claims without the cash tied up on site.
Common questions
Roofing Contractors — business loan questions
Can I finance a work truck and roofing gear?
Yes — utes, trucks, edge protection, hoists and power tools are common equipment-finance items for roofers. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender who understands trade cash flow rather than treating you like a generic small business.
Can finance bridge the wait on builder progress claims?
That is exactly what a working-capital line is for. It covers your materials and crew while you wait on a builder's progress claim, so a slow payer does not stall your next job or your gear setup.
