General payment cycle...

Here is a snapshot view of our general payment cycle.  This is what you should be able to expect unless there is something unexpected or unusual as outlined below:

1.  You do the work or supply the material to the job site before month end,
2.  Fax or email a billing on our payment request form to the main office generally by the 25th of the month,
3.  We prepare a payment request and send it to the owner,
4.  You provide supplier lien releases if requested,
5.  We both wait for the owner to pay our request,
6.  We cut checks on the 3rd and 4th Thursday's of the month and mail the following day assuming the owner has paid by that time.  We generally receive our money between the 20th and 25th of the month.

Examples of unexpected or unusual items that can slow the payment process down are:

1.  We don't get your payment request before we prepare our billing,
2.  The work isn't done for which you are billing or the materials billed are not there by the end of the month,
3.  Insurance certificates have lapsed or have not been provided,
4.  The architect rejects the work or material and cuts our draw for your portion to the owner,
5.  Lien releases have not been received.

You can find all the forms required in this process on our forms and downloads page on our website.
