Construction Cash Flow Is a Different Problem Entirely

Canadian construction contractors face one of the most extreme cash flow gaps in any industry. You mobilize workers, rent equipment, purchase materials, and pay subcontractors weeks or months before you receive your first progress payment, and the final holdback may not be released for 30-90 days after project completion. GC payment terms of net-60 or net-90 are common. When you're running two or three projects simultaneously, this receivable gap can run into the hundreds of thousands. Traditional lenders don't understand the project-based nature of construction billing, Oakridge Funding does.

Slow Receivables & Holdbacks

Progress billing on large projects can take 30-60 days to process, and statutory holdbacks (typically 10%) aren't released until well after substantial completion. Meanwhile, your workers, material suppliers, and equipment rentals all require timely payment. A working capital advance bridges this gap.

Equipment Costs & Breakdowns

A broken excavator or a failed concrete pump on a time-sensitive project can cost you far more in delays and penalties than the repair itself. Fast access to equipment repair capital, or funding to rent replacement machinery, can save a contract from going sideways.

Payroll During Project Gaps

Your trades crew expects their paycheque every two weeks, regardless of whether your GC has paid your latest draw. Maintaining payroll continuity through project gaps and slow GC payments is critical to retaining your skilled workforce in a tight labour market.

Funding Designed for How Construction Businesses Bill and Get Paid

We fund construction companies based on their revenue history and the strength of their pipeline, not just their current bank balance. Our solutions are calibrated to the realities of project-based billing cycles.

  • Receivable bridge funding while waiting on GC payments and holdback releases
  • Equipment repair and rental capital to keep projects on schedule
  • Payroll coverage during the gap between project draw submissions and payment
  • Material pre-purchase capital to lock in prices before project start
