How We Help Electricians

Most electricians start with vehicle finance — a van or ute to carry tools and materials. As the business grows, equipment finance for elevated work platforms, testing equipment and cable trailers becomes important. Growing electrical businesses also benefit from cash flow facilities to manage the gap between project completion and customer payment.

Cash Flow Solutions for Electricians

Insurance premium funding is particularly popular with electrical businesses — annual public liability and professional indemnity premiums can be significant, and spreading these costs across 10 to 12 monthly payments makes them much easier to manage.
