Before we dig in Nuneaton
The highway authority for local roads in Nuneaton is Warwickshire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
If your site in Nuneaton is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Nuneaton and Bedworth) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Many automatic bollard faults start in the ground. Resurfacing contractors often cut through loops and ducts without realising they are there, so it is worth pointing them out before any roadworks.
- Do not keep a bollard in service with faulty or bypassed safety devices; make it safe and lock it down or out of use until repaired.
- Have electrical repairs carried out by a qualified electrician to BS 7671.
What happens on site
Make the entrance safe
On arrival, the crew makes the bollard and entrance safe, lowering or securing it as agreed with you and coning the area.
Quote and repair
Simple faults within the visit are fixed on the day. Where parts or further work are needed, we quote them in writing and complete the repair once approved.
Test and report
After the repair, every safety device and access input is tested with vehicles, and you receive a written report of the fault, cause and work done.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Heads and covers | Replacement heads, covers, reflective bands and light rings after impact damage. |
| Make safe | Locking the bollard down or securing it up, with cones and signs, so the entrance is safe while a repair is arranged. |
| Controller and electrics | Power supplies, control boards, contactors, batteries and wiring, with a qualified electrician for supply work. |
What affects the quote
Our West Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Nuneaton firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Impact damage to heads, cassettes or foundations
- Nature of the fault and time needed to diagnose it
- Loop replacement and surface repairs
Looking after them
Tell anyone resurfacing or digging nearby where loops, ducts and drains run. Many repairs could be avoided by regular servicing, which catches blocked drains, weeping seals and failing loops early.
If posts in Nuneaton are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.

Can you repair automatic bollards you did not install?
Yes, for common makes of hydraulic and electro-mechanical bollard. Some parts are proprietary and sourced through the manufacturer or distributor. Make and model details help us prepare.

Usually because a loop or its detector is faulty, or an access device is sending repeated signals. Damaged road surfaces and water in loop cuts are common causes. Diagnosis checks the loops first.
