Excavators, mini to full size
From a mini for tight residential access to a full-size machine for commercial dirt. New or used, dealer or private sale.
Excavation and site work
Equipment finance for excavation contractors
Excavators, track loaders, attachments and the trailer that moves them. Built Capital arranges the funding so the machine stops being the reason you turn work down. Most of our files start with a contractor who has already won the job.
Renting it
You pay for every week the machine sits on your site, including the wet ones. At the end of the job it goes back and you own nothing.
Owning it
Similar money, except it builds equity in an asset you can bid against next season, and lease-to-own ends at a $20 buyout.
What we finance
Iron, and the things that make it earn
Skid steers and track loaders
The machine that earns on the days the excavator is idle. Grading, backfill, material handling, and snow when the ground closes.
Attachments
Breakers, thumbs, grapples, augers, compaction. The cheapest way to widen what you can bid without buying a second machine.
The second machine
When one crew is the ceiling and you are sequencing jobs around a single excavator instead of running them in parallel.
The usual reason people call
The job is there, the machine is not
You bid it, you won it, and now the start date is fixed and the iron is not. That is a funding timeline problem, not a credit problem, and it is the one we deal with most.
Bring the quote and the timeline. Having funding arranged before you go back to the dealer also means you are negotiating as a cash buyer rather than asking them to carry you.
Also on the table
Three other things site contractors come to us for
- Payments that follow frostIf your ground closes in December, the payment schedule does not have to ignore that. On lease-to-own we can arrange for it to ease through the freeze.
- A corporation under two years oldNo trading history is not the obstacle operators assume. Lenders read the directors, so a young corporation is often easier to place than an older one carrying baggage.
- Working capital between drawsPayroll and fuel while you wait on a progress draw. Separate from the equipment, and it does not have to wait on an asset purchase.

Frequently asked questions
I have already won the job and the start date is fixed. How fast does this move?
That is the most common file we see. Bring the quote and the date. Speed depends on the lender and how complete the picture is, so the fastest thing you can do is have the machine, the price and the seller ready when you call.
Can I finance a private sale, or does it have to be a dealer?
Both are usually workable, though a private sale needs a bit more on the machine itself: serial number, hours, and something showing clear title. Tell us which it is up front and it saves a round trip.
Used iron, or does it have to be new?
Used is normal in this trade and we place it regularly. Age and hours affect the structure and the term more than they affect whether it can be done at all.
What happens to payments when the ground closes?
If your work genuinely stops through the freeze, say so at the start. On lease-to-own we can arrange for the schedule to ease through those months rather than run flat across the year.
What does credit have to look like?
Credit is one factor in the file, not the whole file. It affects the rate and the structure. Bring the situation you actually have and we will tell you what is realistic.
