Recognise any of these?

If so, a Credicorp short-term business loan could help you bridge that gap.

  • Materials and plant hire to pay upfront before a stage payment lands
  • Retention held back for months after the work is signed off
  • Paying subcontractors weekly while the main contractor pays you monthly
  • A tool or piece of plant breaking down mid-project and stopping the job

If the need is one specific bill — a materials order, plant hire invoice or equipment service — Credicorp Slice spreads it over 3 or 4 weekly instalments at a flat 6% fee with no compounding.

Common questions

Can a construction or contracting company apply for a Credicorp business loan?

Yes. Credicorp lends to UK incorporated limited companies and LLPs in construction — builders, contractors, groundworkers and fit-out firms. Whether you work on residential or commercial sites is not a pricing factor.

Do companies in this sector need to provide a personal guarantee?

No. All Credicorp lending is to the company — the UK limited company or LLP — as the sole obligor. There is no personal guarantee and no personal credit search on any director or shareholder.

How quickly can a company in this sector get a lending decision from Credicorp?

Applications are reviewed as they arrive during business hours. Credicorp aims to make a credit decision the same working day in most cases. Once approved, funds typically reach your company account the same day.
