Rules for bollard repairs in Scotland
Works in a public road or footway need the roads authority's written consent under the Roads (Scotland) Act 1984. 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
Send photos and details
Tell us what has happened and send photographs of each affected post, close up and from a distance, with the location. That lets us identify the bollard type and the likely repair.
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.
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.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in East Renfrewshire?
The council is the roads authority for local roads (East Renfrewshire Council); Transport Scotland covers trunk roads. Works in a public road need the roads authority's written consent.
Can a bent bollard be straightened?
Only if the bend is slight and the steel has not creased or torn. A sharply bent post is weakened and should be replaced. Often the post is fine and it is the foundation that has moved, which re-bedding fixes.
Can you repair a bollard we did not install?
Yes. We repair fixed, removable, telescopic, fold-down and other manual bollards whoever installed them. Photographs help us identify the type and find matching parts.
