What we check first in Bedworth
The highway authority for local roads in Bedworth 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.
Bollards on private land often don't need planning permission, but it depends on the council's view, the height and the location; in a conservation area, next to a listed building or under an Article 4 direction, ask the local planning authority (the council for Nuneaton and Bedworth) first — we flag this at survey.
Backfilling in compacted layers stops later settlement, which otherwise shows as a dip in the new surface. Where the area is being resurfaced anyway, removal is timed to happen first so the patching disappears under the new surface.
- Have automatic and lighting bollard supplies isolated and made safe by a qualified electrician.
- In conservation areas, check before removing historic bollards, as consent may be needed or retention expected.
Installation, step by step
Survey what is in the ground
The free site survey identifies bollard types, likely foundation sizes, any power or ducts, and what the area will be used for next. You receive a fixed written quote for the agreed level of removal.
Check consents and reasons
Before removal, check whether the bollards were required by a planning condition, a lease, a security plan or the highway authority, and whether they protect something such as a meter or a building corner.
Remove posts and foundations
Posts are cut off or extracted, foundations broken out where agreed, and sockets, cassettes and ducts removed or capped.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Socket and cassette removal | Removable sockets and telescopic or semi-automatic cassettes extracted whole and the hole filled. |
| Full extraction | Post and foundation broken out, leaving clear ground for resurfacing or new works. |
| Lighting bollard removal | Supply made dead and cables terminated or removed by a qualified electrician before posts are lifted. |
Pricing bollard removal jobs in Bedworth
Two Bedworth jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Surface type and reinstatement
- Cutting off or full foundation extraction
- Access, working hours and waste disposal
After installation
Where cables were terminated rather than removed, record where they are and confirm with the electrician that they are dead and labelled. If foundations were left in place, record their positions on site drawings so future contractors are not surprised by buried concrete.
If posts in Bedworth are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.
Questions about bollard removal jobs in Bedworth
Do you carry out bollard removal jobs in Bedworth?
We cover all of Bedworth (CV12) and the rest of Warwickshire. We also work in Nuneaton, Coventry and Hinckley.
Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Bedworth?
In Bedworth, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Warwickshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
How much do bollard removal jobs cost in Bedworth?
In Bedworth, typically £80–£345 per post removed with footing, surface made good, plus VAT (£95–£405 including VAT for homeowners), with a minimum job of £295 plus VAT, using our West Midlands guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Can automatic bollards be removed safely?
Yes, once the supply has been isolated and disconnected by a qualified electrician and any hydraulic fluid drained. The cassette is then lifted and the pit backfilled. Ducts are capped or removed.
Will the surface look patched after removal?
On block paving it can be nearly invisible, as the blocks are relaid. Tarmac, resin and concrete usually show a patch, especially on older weathered surfaces. Timing removal before resurfacing avoids that.
