Business funding for HVAC and plumbing companies
Business funding for HVAC and plumbing companies usually means three things: equipment financing for service trucks and tools, working capital for parts inventory and seasonal hiring, and invoice factoring when commercial GCs pay on net-30 to net-60 terms. The trades have a built-in tension: demand spikes (first heat wave, first freeze) arrive faster than cash does, and a truck down or a tech you couldn't hire is revenue handed to a competitor. Quordx Capital matches HVAC and plumbing contractors to trade-friendly lenders from a 50+ network, free, with one application.

How trades contractors get funded
The funding playbook for a service trade maps cleanly to how the business runs:
- Trucks and equipment: service vans, pipe machines, excavation attachments, recovery units, and diagnostic tools all fit equipment financing: $5K to $5M+, new or used, asset as collateral, 24-84 month terms, rates commonly ~7%-20%. Collateral makes these the most approvable deals when credit is imperfect. - Seasonal ramp: hiring techs and stocking parts ahead of summer or winter peaks fits a working capital loan ($5K-$500K): short money for a short cycle. - Commercial receivables: if you sub for GCs or serve property managers on terms, invoice factoring advances typically 70-90% of invoice value on completed work, underwritten on your customer's credit. - The everything cushion: a business line of credit ($10K-$250K+) handles material price spikes, warranty work, and payroll timing: interest accrues only on what you draw.
Standard minimums apply: roughly 3-6+ months in business and ~$10K+ monthly revenue, with revenue-based products accepting credit scores down to around 500-550.
