Running a concrete manufacturing or ready-mix operation means managing some of the heaviest capital requirements in the construction supply chain. A single transit mix truck can cost $200,000 to $400,000. A new batch plant can run $500,000 or more. Add in raw material costs for cement, aggregates, and admixtures, unpredictable seasonal demand, and payment cycles that stretch 30 to 90 days -- and it is easy to see why access to fast, flexible capital is critical for concrete companies at every stage of growth.
At Crestmont Capital, we specialize in business loans for concrete companies of all sizes. Whether you need to finance new mixer trucks, cover payroll during a slow stretch, or stock up on materials ahead of a major contract, we have the funding solutions to keep your business moving forward.
Fast approvals. No collateral required. Bad credit considered. Funding in as little as 24 hours.
We offer a full range of financing products tailored to the specific cash flow patterns and capital needs of concrete manufacturers and ready-mix operations.
Concrete mixer trucks, batch plants, conveyor systems, pumping equipment, and transit mix vehicles are the backbone of your operation. When aging equipment breaks down or a new contract requires added capacity, you cannot afford to wait. Our equipment financing lets you acquire the machinery you need with terms structured around the useful life of the asset. Finance new or used equipment, preserve cash flow, and keep your fleet competitive.
Contractors pay on 30-, 60-, or even 90-day cycles. Meanwhile, cement deliveries and aggregate suppliers want payment upfront or within 10 to 15 days. Our unsecured working capital loans bridge the gap. Use the funds to cover payroll for plant operators, truck drivers, and dispatchers; pay raw material invoices; or handle unexpected repair costs without disrupting your production schedule.
Concrete demand is seasonal. Winter slowdowns and summer construction booms create cash flow volatility that is hard to plan around. A business line of credit gives you a revolving credit facility you can draw from when you need it and pay down when cash flow improves. Only pay interest on what you actually use. Ideal for managing material purchasing, covering payroll gaps, or funding smaller capital purchases as needed.
For larger planned investments -- expanding your plant, adding a second batch location, upgrading to a new concrete pumping system, or building out a covered aggregate storage facility -- a traditional term loan provides a lump sum with predictable monthly payments. Terms from 1 to 10 years give you the flexibility to match repayment to the projected revenue from the investment.
For established concrete companies looking for longer terms and lower rates, SBA loans offer some of the most competitive financing available. SBA 7(a) loans can fund up to $5 million for equipment, working capital, real estate, and business acquisition. SBA 504 loans are ideal for major fixed-asset purchases like plant real estate or large-scale equipment. Crestmont Capital can help you navigate the SBA process from application to approval.
Most lenders see a concrete company and think "heavy industry, high risk." At Crestmont Capital, we see a business with strong demand, long-term infrastructure contracts, and real assets. We understand that:
We have helped concrete manufacturers, ready-mix operators, precast producers, and concrete pumping companies across the United States access the capital they need to grow, stabilize, and compete.
Qualifying businesses can borrow anywhere from $10,000 to $5 million depending on revenue, time in business, and the loan type. Equipment financing amounts are typically tied to the value of the asset being financed. Working capital loans are based on monthly revenue. Contact us to discuss the right loan size for your specific situation.
Working capital loans and lines of credit can be approved and funded in as little as 24 hours. Equipment financing and SBA loans take longer due to documentation and underwriting requirements, but we work to move as quickly as possible. Most equipment loans close within 3 to 5 business days.
Not always. Our unsecured working capital loans and lines of credit do not require you to pledge equipment, real estate, or other assets. Equipment financing is secured by the equipment itself. SBA loans may require collateral depending on the loan amount and structure. Many concrete company owners qualify for substantial unsecured financing without putting their business assets at risk.
Yes. We consider the full picture of your business health, including monthly revenue, time in business, cash flow patterns, and industry experience. Concrete companies with strong revenue and consistent cash flow often qualify even with credit scores in the 500s. We work with business owners who have been declined by traditional banks.
For most working capital loans and lines of credit, we typically require only your last 3 months of business bank statements and a completed application. Equipment financing may require equipment invoices or quotes, and SBA loans require more extensive documentation including tax returns, financial statements, and business plans. We will walk you through exactly what is needed for your loan type.
Most of our programs require at least 6 months to 1 year in business with consistent revenue. If you are a newer operation, equipment financing secured by the machinery itself is often the most accessible path. If you have been in business for at least a year, you likely qualify for working capital programs as well. Contact us to review your options.
Yes. Our equipment financing programs cover both new and used mixer trucks, transit mix vehicles, volumetric mixers, and other concrete-related machinery. Used equipment financing can be a cost-effective way to expand your fleet without the premium cost of new units. Age and condition of the equipment may affect terms.
Rates vary based on loan type, credit profile, time in business, and revenue. Working capital loans typically carry factor rates starting around 1.15 to 1.45. Equipment financing rates typically range from 5% to 20% APR depending on creditworthiness and equipment type. SBA loans offer the most competitive long-term rates, often in the 6% to 10% range. We are transparent about pricing and will show you all costs before you commit.
Do not let capital constraints slow down your operation or cause you to pass on profitable contracts. Whether you need to replace a mixer, stock up on materials, or bridge a cash flow gap while waiting on invoice payments, Crestmont Capital has a financing solution designed for your business.
Our application takes just a few minutes. There is no obligation to accept any offer. Our advisors will review your situation and present the options that make the most sense for your concrete company.
