Why this matters
Emergency repairs disrupt cash flow fast. Some lenders focus on stability, others focus on weekly revenue strength, and others prioritise urgency over structure. Once your business reaches 12+ months trading, far more pathways open up — often with longer terms, weekly repayments, and cash-flow friendly options built for unexpected costs.
If you’re unsure where you fit, that’s completely normal — most business owners aren’t certain during stressful repair situations.
