A St. Albert contractor needed about $195,000 to cover payroll, materials, and equipment repairs during delayed receivables from several commercial projects. Funding was arranged within a few business days once statements, financials, and contract details were submitted. The file moved quickly because deposits were steady, margins were healthy, and the purpose directly supported active project delivery.

The capital helped maintain staffing, avoid equipment downtime, and complete ongoing work on schedule. Results vary depending on documentation and financial conditions.
