With more than 100 years of combined industry experience, our team supports over 300 contractors nationwide with more than $1.25 billion in committed capital. Wintrust CE&A understand the nuances of this dynamic industry—the seasonality, the cyclicality, the growing pains—we are here to help your business thrive in this ever challenging industry.

Our team’s industry experience means we’ve developed an extensive network. Our resources can help you maximize revenues and profits, improve collections, navigate public-private partnership opportunities, recruit and retain key people, present and evaluate acquisition opportunities, and address long-term business succession. This is an industry we take very seriously.
