After expanding into Halifax in 2023, their Nova Scotia team grew from four employees to 25 in just six months. Prestige offers premium HVAC installation and service, and was named Ottawa’s #1 Top Growing Company in 2025 by Ottawa Business Journal. To learn more about the company’s approach to financing and growth, we spoke with Travis Moriarty, Co-Founder of Prestige Home Improvement. |
The Challenge
Prestige’s growth outpaced what traditional financing providers could offer. They needed faster approvals and reliable technology to keep up with their expanding sales teams. Sustaining that momentum meant finding a partner they who could scale with them – offering flexible programs to win bigger deals, fast approvals to keep up with volume, and reliable financing processes that build long-term customer trust.
How Financeit Helped
As Prestige scaled, they turned to Financeit for a partner that could match their pace of growth. Financeit delivered the right technology, fast approvals, and promotional programs to strengthen their sales process and support continued expansion.
Some of the biggest drivers of success came from Financeit’s flexible financing programs, like the Combo Program. This type of program enabled Prestige to offer customers payment holidays and lower APRs in one offering, helping them attract different customer segments and close larger projects. This flexibility translated into measurable results, driving a 179% increase in application volume and a 66% lift in average ticket size over the past two years.
“It’s been very helpful to give people different options – you can build custom financing options for each customer’s preferences and needs.” – Travis Moriarty
Financeit also strengthened Prestige’s operations with technology and support. Quick auto-approvals streamlined the sales process, eliminating unnecessary delays for their customers, while real-time updates and API integrations enabled Prestige to manage higher volumes without sacrificing service.
“The number one thing that sets Financeit apart from competitors is speed of approval. An application taking even 15-30 minutes to be approved is a significant delay in the sales process when a comfort advisor is in a customer’s home.” – Travis Moriarty
Together, these solutions continue to position Prestige Home Improvement to accelerate growth, expand into new markets, and build a motivated team ready for the next stage of expansion.
“It’s great to work with an organization that’s actively making quick, real-time improvements to their software and integrations. You can tell Financeit is committed to long-term growth.”” – Travis Moriarty
