Business finance for electricians

Funding options for electricians.

Electrical contractors may work across domestic jobs, commercial projects and maintenance contracts. The funding need depends on whether the work is paid on completion, by progress claim or on account.

How cash moves

Materials, vehicles and wages can be paid before a principal approves a progress claim. A larger contract may stretch cash even when the quoted margin is sound.

A practical situation

An electrical business takes on a commercial fit-out and needs a second van, testing equipment and materials before its first certified claim.
