A maintenance and drainage specialist growing fast but held back by extended payment terms. A £50,000 selective facility gave them the breathing room to keep up with demand.

A Bristol eco-heating installer with 20 years’ experience hit a wall when their lender exited construction finance. High street banks turned them down. But their cash flow challenge – paying suppliers and subcontractors upfront while waiting months for payment – is textbook construction. See how a referral from another installer led them to Apollo, and how we structured funding that actually works for their sector.

When an electrical and data contractor in the North East needed a clean start after a previous company entered liquidation, Apollo stepped in to help. Some lenders were hesitant to support the new venture, but we took the time to understand the full story. The result was a £150,000 facility that restored stability, supported wages and suppliers, and helped the director move forward with confidence.

When other lenders said no, Apollo stepped in. With a fast £175,000 facility, hands-on support, and zero judgment over past setbacks, we gave this business the fresh start it needed – and the working capital to grow again.

A temporary employment company in the construction sector faced cash flow challenges due to 30-day customer payment terms, making it difficult to meet weekly payroll. Despite having a CCJ and a previous IVA, Apollo provided a £200,000 invoice finance facility, funding nine key customers and including bad debtor protection.

We’ve recently welcomed a company in the air conditioning sector that was facing a series of challenges. With past liquidations, CCJs, and a breakdown in relationship with a previous lender, they came to us for support.
