Extend Contractor Credit Backed by a Personal Guarantee
Give your building supply business one online form to vet contractors, set credit limits, list authorized buyers, and secure a personal guarantee.
This contractor credit account application with personal guarantee gives lumber yards, building supply stores, and materials distributors a complete way to screen contractors before extending trade credit. Applicants provide their legal business name and DBA, business structure, EIN, years in business, primary trade, and contractor license number with issuing state, along with a business address, phone, and a dedicated accounts payable email for invoices and statements.
The credit section captures the requested credit limit, a list of authorized purchasers with names, titles, and phone numbers, any sales tax exemption or resale certificate, a bank reference, and three trade references from current suppliers. Applicants then agree to your terms of sale, including payment due within 30 days of the statement date, a 1.5% monthly service charge on past-due balances, responsibility for collection costs and attorney fees, and the supplier's reservation of mechanic's lien rights. They also authorize you to contact references and pull business and personal credit reports, and a principal or owner provides their name and home address as personal guarantor.
Built for credit managers, branch managers, and owners of building supply businesses, this template replaces paper packets and scattered emails with one organized online form. Every application arrives with the details you need to verify references, set a sensible credit limit, and control who can charge to the account. Customize the terms to fit your policies and state lien laws, share the link with new contractor customers, and start approving accounts faster while protecting your receivables.
