Trade contractors with service agreements and repeat maintenance customers tend to have steadier cash flow than project-only businesses, and funding sources look closely at that mix. Vehicles, tools and inventory are core assets, and seasonality in heating and cooling work can drive working capital needs.
Common Financing Uses
- Service vans and trucks
- Working capital for materials and payroll through seasonal peaks
- Buying a competitor or a book of service agreements
- Shop and warehouse purchases
Documentation Typically Requested
Count and revenue of service agreements, revenue split between service and installation, a vehicle schedule and receivables aging.
Illustrative Scenario
An HVAC company expanding its service fleet might show how maintenance agreements support the new vehicle payments in slower seasons.
