A rented advertising balloon does exactly what a bought one does while it is in the air. The difference is what happens the following Monday.
How it works
We size the balloon to the site rather than the photograph. That usually means asking about the wind, the anchor points and what is overhead.
Museums and civic buildings
Civic buildings often cannot alter their frontage. A tethered balloon advertises an exhibition without touching the architecture.
Distribution and industrial parks
Industrial estates are unsigned mazes. Recruiters and open days use a balloon simply so people can find the right unit.
Jewellery and gift retail
Gift retail peaks in short, dated windows. Advertising that can be up for eleven days and then gone fits the trade exactly.
Bridal and event retail
Seasonal show weekends drive the year. Being the visible stand or shop for those two days is worth more than a month of ordinary advertising.
Fuel stations and truck stops
Highway sites are chosen at speed and from distance. A balloon adds a second landmark above the price sign, which is often what is actually seen first.
Questions we get
Cold-air or helium?
Helium flies above the building; cold-air stands on the ground and needs a power point. Helium wins on distance, cold-air wins on cost and simplicity.
Can we reuse it next year?
That is the normal pattern. Stored dry and out of the sun, a balloon comes out for the same sale for several years running.
How long does a balloon last?
The polyurethane we weld is rated in years of outdoor use, not weeks. What wears first is usually the printing on a balloon flown in strong sun every day.
What it costs
Every price below is current for 2026. Plain means the balloon on its own; printed means your artwork on it. There is no quote form standing between you and the number.

What we build
- Advertising blimps — Helium blimps from 10 to 30 feet, flown on a tether above the building. Visible from roads that cannot see your sign.
- Cold-air inflatables — Ground-standing shapes, characters and product replicas, run on a quiet blower. No helium.
- Round balloons — The classic sales-event balloon, 4.5 to 14 feet across. The cheapest way into outdoor advertising.
