What is a business loan and how can it help my scaffolding company?

A business loan gives your scaffolding firm a cash injection to cover things like materials, wages, tax bills, or expansion. You borrow a set amount and repay it monthly, usually over 6 to 72 months. It's a flexible way to keep your business moving.

Can I get an unsecured business loan as a scaffolding contractor?

Can I get an unsecured business loan as a scaffolding contractor?

Yes – many lenders offer unsecured business loans for scaffolders, which means no assets are required as security. These are ideal for quick funding when you don’t want to put up vehicles or equipment as collateral.

How much can I borrow with a scaffolding business loan?

How much can I borrow with a scaffolding business loan?

Most scaffolding business loans range from £5,000 to £1m depending on your turnover, trading history, and credit profile. We'll help you figure out how much is realistic – and what your monthly payments could look like.

Can I use a business loan to pay VAT or Corporation Tax?

Can I use a business loan to pay VAT or Corporation Tax?

Absolutely. A short-term business loan is a smart way to cover VAT bills or Corporation Tax when cash is tight. It helps you avoid penalties and frees up cash for jobs, wages, or new kit.

How fast can I get a business loan for my scaffolding company?

Some lenders can approve and fund scaffolding business loans within 24 hours. If you’ve got your figures ready, we can move quickly – especially for urgent cashflow gaps or tax deadlines.

No – we arrange business loans for sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies. Whether you’re just starting out or growing fast, there are options available.
