The business of repairing domestic ground care machinery and a small amount of commercial equipment from local golf and cricket clubs became the responsibility of David Balmer and Simon Phillips, who within six months took the company from strength to strength thereby putting a more personal touch to the industry by renaming the company “Balmers Garden Machinery”. This soon became a trade name within the ground care industry in around the county of Lancashire. It didn’t take long for the business to outgrow its current premises making it necessary to move to larger premises on Royal Road in Burnley.

Within four years it became essential to employ more mechanics to service and repair the machines; given that a successful increase in business and a new motorway network construction this proved the ideal time to relocate to even bigger premises.

Trafalgar Street Burnley, a much larger and modern site now houses a dedicated team of fully trained mechanics able to service and repair to the high standards required of the industry. Our technical sales staff is fully conversant with all ground care machines and are available to assist clients to decide which models suit their immediate requirements. The vast range of parts held in the stores department offers a speedy replacement service, thereby, reducing machine down time. Our transport fleet ensures your machinery is also delivered on schedule. The friendly administration staff is always available to take your call and any queries you may have.
