Financing for Tilers
Tilers carry real costs before a cent comes in. A large-format saw, a levelling system, a ute fit-out or a stock-up of adhesive and trims for a big job can climb toward the ~$70,000 mark when you add it all up, and that money goes out before the builder's progress claim lands. A working-capital or equipment facility lets you take on bigger jobs, buy materials for the next project while waiting on the last one, and ride out the wet-weather and holiday lulls without falling behind.
Common questions
Tilers — business loan questions
Can I finance tools and materials together?
Often yes. A tile saw, mixers and levelling gear can go on equipment finance, while a working-capital line covers adhesive, grout and the materials you front before getting paid. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender that understands how tilers actually get paid.
Will waiting on builder progress claims hurt my application?
Slow payers are normal in this trade and good lenders expect it. Showing steady booked work and repeat builders usually matters more than the timing gaps between progress claims.
