What to know

Roofing contractor loans are not one product. The right fit depends on what the money will pay for, when cash is needed, and how predictable the repayment will be against scheduled jobs and collections. Equipment financing ties the loan to a vehicle or machine, while a business line of credit can cover recurring short-cycle needs. Working capital is built for speed, but its short terms and factor pricing can make it costly. SBA financing may suit a larger expansion when the business can wait through a longer process.

Option	Partner terms as of July 2026	Typical fit
Equipment financing	$10K–$5M; 8–25% APR; 3–7 days	Trucks, fleet, or specialty equipment
Business line of credit	$10K–$250K; revolving; setup 1–3 days, draws same-day	Seasonal gaps, payroll timing, supplier purchases
Working capital	$10K–$500K; 3–24 months; factor rate 1.15–1.40 (≈25–60%+ APR); as fast as 24 hours	Urgent inventory, payroll, or repairs
SBA loans	$50K–$5M+; 10–25 years; 30–90 days, Express under 30	Larger, longer-term expansion or acquisition

These ranges are partner terms as of July 2026, not guaranteed offers. Eligibility and final pricing depend on underwriting. Equipment financing may be a straightforward place to start when the purchase itself is a truck, trailer, or machine: the stated partner minimums are 580 credit, six months in business, and $100K+ annual revenue, with 0% down often available at 650+ credit. Match the repayment term to the asset’s useful life so the equipment is still producing revenue while payments are due.

For working capital, the partner’s stated minimums are 550 credit, six months in business, and $10K+ monthly revenue. Fast access can help bridge payroll or materials between a project’s upfront costs and customer payment, but check the total repayment and payment frequency against your receivables. A line of credit has a different use: draw only what is needed for a short cycle, repay it, then draw again as needs arise. The stated floors are 600 credit, six months in business, and $10K+ monthly revenue; costs can include a draw fee as well as interest.

SBA loans trade speed for potentially lower-cost, larger financing. As of July 2026, through our funding partner, stated terms are Prime + 2.75–4.75%, with minimums of 640 credit, 24 months in business, and $100K+ annual revenue. Working capital terms are up to 10 years and real estate terms up to 25 years. That can fit an expansion, acquisition, or refinancing plan, but a 30–90 day funding estimate means it is usually a poor match for a crew facing an immediate equipment breakdown or payroll deadline.

Approval floors are starting points, not promises. Lenders may also review bank statements, existing debt payments, time under current ownership, tax records, customer concentration, and whether invoices are collectible. Roofing businesses should be ready to explain seasonality and project timing: strong annual sales can still leave a thin month when materials, labor, insurance, and fuel come due before a job pays. Estimate the monthly payment under a slower collections scenario, and avoid borrowing against revenue that is only projected.
