FAQ

Canadian construction financing: common questions.

Do I need to be bonded to qualify?+

No. Bonding capacity is helpful context but not a requirement for most products. Some lenders weight it for larger lines, but Thrivewell underwrites on cash flow first.

How are progress draws treated in underwriting?+

AR aging tied to progress draws counts toward working capital. We look at the GC paying, the contract structure, and your historical conversion of AR to cash.

Can I finance equipment with this?+

Equipment can be financed through a term loan or an equipment-specific facility. A line of credit may be considered for suitable files; we compare available structures before you commit.

How long does financing take?+

Timing depends on the product, documentation, and lender review. Additional documents may be required.

Will financing affect my bonding?+

Lender security requirements vary by offer and may matter to bonding capacity. We explain the structure before you decide.
