Rules for bollard repairs in England
Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first.

How installation works
Receive a written price
We confirm the cost of the visit and the expected work in writing before anyone attends. Nothing is done until you have agreed it.
Make safe if needed
Where a post is a hazard now, the first step can be to make it safe by removing or capping it, priced separately in writing so you can approve it on its own.
Carry out the repair
The crew carries out the agreed work. If they find something different, such as a cracked slab under a base plate, they stop and we price the extra work in writing before continuing.
Record and hand back
The repaired posts are checked, the surface is made good and photographs are sent so you have a record for your maintenance file.

In Cornwall, typically £115–£445 per visit, typically one to three posts, plus VAT (£135–£525 including VAT for homeowners), using our South West guide prices. We confirm the visit price in writing before attending.
Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Cornwall?
For local roads, Cornwall Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.
Why does our base-plated bollard keep working loose?
Usually because the anchors are in weak, cracked or thin concrete, or too close to an edge or joint. Re-tightening does not last. New anchors in fresh positions, a larger plate or a slab repair is the lasting fix.
What happens if the crew finds more damage than expected?
They stop and tell you, and we price the extra work in writing. You decide whether to go ahead. Nothing beyond the agreed price is carried out without your approval.
