What to know

Roofing contractor loans are not one product. A financed truck or machine has a different repayment logic from payroll before a customer pays an invoice, or a multi-year expansion. Match the funding term to the useful life of what you’re buying: spreading short-lived costs over a long term can leave you paying after the benefit is gone, while a short repayment schedule can strain cash flow on a durable asset.

For a vehicle, lift, trailer, or other eligible equipment purchase, equipment financing ties the borrowing to the asset. As of July 2026, through our funding partner, the stated range is $10K–$5M at 8–25% APR, with terms matched to the asset’s life and funding in 3–7 days. Partner minimums are a 580 credit score, six months in business, and $100K+ annual revenue; 0% down is often available at 650+ credit. These are partner terms, not a guarantee or standing offer. The specific asset, borrower file, and lender review affect an approval and its terms.

A line of credit can fit seasonal gaps, emergency repairs, or supplier purchases when you expect to repay the draw from near-term receipts. Partner terms as of July 2026 range from $10K–$250K, with revolving access, setup in 1–3 days, and same-day draws once established. Cost is Prime + 3% to mid-20s APR, plus a 1–3% draw fee. Minimums are 600 credit, six months in business, and $10K+ monthly revenue. The draw fee and variable cost matter: compare total borrowing cost against the savings or revenue the draw is expected to produce.

Working capital may suit a shorter, urgent need when a bank timeline is too slow. As of July 2026, through our funding partner, amounts range from $10K–$500K, with 3–24 month terms and funding as fast as 24 hours. The partner’s factor rate is 1.15–1.40, approximately 25–60%+ APR. Minimums are 550 credit, six months in business, and $10K+ monthly revenue. Speed can help bridge payroll or inventory, but the repayment schedule and total payback deserve close attention before accepting an offer.

For a larger expansion, acquisition, or refinancing of expensive short-term debt, an SBA loan may be a better fit if you can wait and meet its higher thresholds. Partner terms as of July 2026 list $50K–$5M+, 10–25 year terms (working capital up to 10 years; real estate up to 25), and Prime + 2.75–4.75% cost. Funding is 30–90 days, with Express under 30. Minimums are 640 credit, 24 months in business, and $100K+ annual revenue. The longer review makes it a poor match for an immediate repair bill, but the term and cost can suit a planned, larger investment.

Need	Product to compare	Partner timing and fit
Truck or durable equipment	Equipment financing	3–7 days; repayment matched to asset life
Seasonal cash gap	Line of credit	Setup 1–3 days; same-day draws after setup
Urgent payroll or inventory	Working capital	As fast as 24 hours; short terms and higher cost
Expansion or acquisition	SBA loan	30–90 days; larger, longer-term financing

Those minimums are starting floors, not a promise that every applicant qualifies. Lenders may also consider recent deposits, debt payments, tax records, and whether revenue is consistent through roofing’s seasonal swings. A business with six months of operation may meet one product’s stated time-in-business threshold but still need to show enough monthly revenue and repayment capacity. Gather recent business bank statements, tax returns, a debt list, and equipment quotes before applying; complete, consistent records can make it easier to compare offers without mistaking a fast decision for an affordable one.
