For buying and refinancing power tools & air compressors
Air compressors, essential for powering tools in construction, industrial tasks, and various critical operations, represent a substantial investment. Air compressor finance and leasing offer alternative solutions to make these vital machines accessible for businesses.
Much like equipment finance, air compressor finance is a type of asset finance. Secured by the air compressor itself, it enables you to distribute the expense over a set period with fixed monthly payments and interest rates. Depending on the selected plan, you may have the option to:
Opting for this financing method allows businesses to:
In the UK, air compressor finance packages often include the option to cover the full cost of the required equipment, including installation and pipework, providing cash flow and taxation benefits. Terms can range from 2 to 5 years, with no deposit needed, and repayments tailored to suit your business needs. This flexibility ensures that your business can acquire the appropriate air compressors and accessories to efficiently complete your projects, with affordable payments and the potential to increase productivity and revenue.

It’s important to consult with finance professionals to navigate the various options, comprehend the specific terms and conditions, and select the finance plan that aligns optimally with your business’s unique needs and budget. In the UK, companies offer tailored finance and hire packages, ensuring businesses can invest in the best equipment for their applications without compromising due to cost constraints.
These packages often include full coverage for the air compressor, including installation and ancillary equipment, with terms ranging from 2 to 5 years and no deposit required, making them a flexible and financially sound choice for your business.
In the construction industry, air compressors play a pivotal role, powering a variety of tools and machinery. Here’s a concise overview of the types of air compressors and their specific uses within construction:
Each type of compressor is designed to meet specific needs in construction, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness on the job site. When selecting an air compressor for construction purposes, it’s crucial to consider the nature of the work, the tools to be powered, and the environment in which the compressor will operate.
Securing finance or leasing for an air compressor in the UK follows a structured process, akin to obtaining other types of loans, but with specific considerations for the equipment’s nature and use in construction. Here’s how it unfolds:
Application Submission: You’ll need to fill out a detailed application, providing information about yourself, your business, and the particular air compressor you’re interested in financing.
Creditworthiness Assessment: Demonstrate a solid credit history and the financial capacity to manage monthly payments, which reassures lenders of your reliability.
Quotation Receipt: Upon reviewing your application, the lender will issue a quote detailing the finance or lease terms tailored to the air compressor.
Quote Comparison: It’s prudent to compare quotes from various lenders to ensure you secure the most favourable terms.
Contract Finalisation: Once you’ve selected a lender, you’ll sign a contract and take care of any necessary fees or deposits.
Equipment Acquisition: The lender will facilitate the purchase by either transferring funds to the seller or directly delivering the air compressor to your site.
Regular Payments: You’ll make consistent monthly payments over the agreed period until the contract concludes.
The type of agreement you choose may entail responsibilities for maintenance, insurance, and taxes. It’s essential to maintain the air compressor in excellent condition and adhere to the contract’s stipulations to avoid potential repossession or additional charges for non-compliance.
Air compressor finance is an astute choice for businesses that require reliable compressed air solutions but are mindful of budget constraints. By opting for finance or leasing, you can spread the cost over time, avoiding the need for a substantial initial outlay. This makes the acquisition of a high-quality air compressor far more accessible, even if the models you’re considering are on the pricier side.
The flexibility of finance options is another significant benefit. You’re not locked into a one-size-fits-all approach; instead, you can tailor the terms and payments to suit your business’s unique financial situation. This adaptability ensures that you can manage your finances without compromising on the equipment quality.
Lastly, there are potential tax benefits to consider. Depending on the finance option you choose, you might be eligible for tax deductions on interest, fees, and depreciation. However, it’s essential to consult with a tax advisor to understand the specific benefits for your situation.
Consider the interest rate, the term of the agreement, any upfront costs, the flexibility of payment schedules, and the potential for upgrades or replacements as your business needs change.
Yes, many finance providers offer options for both new and used equipment. It’s important to compare the terms and conditions for used equipment financing, as they may differ from those for new equipment.
Financing an air compressor allows you to spread the cost over time, which can help maintain a healthy cash flow by avoiding a large one-time expenditure.
Generally, there are no restrictions on the type or brand of air compressor you can finance. However, the finance provider may have specific criteria for the equipment to qualify for financing.
The approval time can vary depending on the provider, but many finance companies offer quick decisions, sometimes within 24 hours, to help you get the equipment you need promptly.
At the end of the finance term, you may have the option to purchase the air compressor, return it, or upgrade to a newer model, depending on the type of finance agreement you have.

I approached Clifton Private Finance to help me get a mortgage as an Expat working in the Far East. I would normally 'cut out the middle man' on something like this and try to get myself a deal directly with the banks, but I am now sold on the broker concept and wouldn't hesitate to use Clifton Private Finance again. There were a number of complicating factors such as being an expat, the stamp duty holiday, the sheer amount I wanted to borrow and the fact I wanted it all wrapped up before the Stamp Duty holiday ended. It is clear to me now that the relationship that brokers have managed to foster with their banks means they can simply pull levers and make stuff happen that us ordinary folk cannot. Put simply, they are worth every penny, will take most of the stress out of the lending process, and seem to have access to deals that you just won't find on the internet. Thank you George and Jan for all your hard work!

Luther was excellent. Very clear in his advice and explanations of products and was able to move things on very quickly when we ran into difficulties with the estate agents. Without a doubt I would recommend Luther to all friends, family and colleagues. Luther was a joy to deal with and took a lot of the stress out of a troublesome transaction, from my end. I would view Luther as real asset to Clifton Private Finance Ltd.

The team at Clifton Private Finance has been outstanding, not only in helping me to obtain a mortgage on a slightly unusual home, but also in continuing to provide support and liaise with the lender and solicitors through to completion. Thank you for making the process of buying my first home much easier.

Sam O'Neill, and the new lender he identified for me, worked tirelessly together using my time constraints, to make sure my mortgage application was completed on time. They are a brilliant company to work with, fast, efficient, open and transparent from the very beginning, and turned a seemingly impossible situation into a viable one. Sam was brilliant throughout the whole process and I would highly recommend him, and his colleague Helen, to anyone without hesitation, I cannot speak highly enough about them.

I was incredibly lucky to find Clifton Private Finance after a search on line as their service has been more than exemplary. My point of contact was Sam 0’Neill and he was happy to help at every stage during the application of the bridging loan, making a stressful process much easier to deal with. He was always available by phone or email and gave prompt answers to queries I had as well as always getting back to me when he said he would. That to me is excellent customer service and I cannot thank him personally or the company enough for the support they have given me.

Adam cannot thank you enough for all your support throughout this arrangement. You have gone more than the extra mile to support us. Without you we would not have got our dream retirement home. You have been most professional and personable. Liz and I would be more than happy if you wanted to use us a reference with respect to any future clients.

You have certainly shown me that you do everything for your clients, including tolerating their excessive emails and questions for updates. I have been kept in the loop, from yourself, about why the delays were occurring (Nationwide, post etc) which I would like to highlight that I really appreciated. I certainly will be able to recommend you to others as and when the need arises.

I recently contacted Clifton Private Finance after a Google search for bridging finance providers and was immediately struck by their efficiency and support. Forms were emailed over almost immediately and the necessary finance was arranged within a few days. None of the other companies I contacted came close to their professionalism, and the quote that I eventually received was impressive. Thank you Adam, your help has enabled us to reserve the house that we wanted and I certainly recommend you to others.
