Why Bordon sites book bollard repairs
Typical reasons for bollard repairs in Bordon:
- Telescopic posts that will not lower or lock
- Posts leaning or rocking after a vehicle knock
- Removable bollards with seized locks or damaged sockets
Before we dig in Bordon
In Bordon, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Hampshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
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 East Hampshire) first — we flag this at survey.
Many repairs are really foundation repairs. Base-plate repairs depend on the slab: if the concrete has cracked or crumbled around the anchors, it is cut back and repaired before new fixings go in.
- Make damaged posts safe promptly, as a leaning post or open socket on a footway is a trip hazard.
- On heritage bollards in conservation areas, repair and reset rather than replace where the conservation officer expects it.
From survey to handover
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.
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.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| New sockets | Replacing seized, crushed or loose sockets for removable bollards, set flush with a working lid. |
| Locks and keys | Replacement cylinders, padlocks and keys, including keyed-alike sets across a site. |
| Cassette clearing | Emptying silt and water from telescopic and semi-automatic cassettes and clearing their drainage. |

Questions about bollard repairs in Bordon
Can you carry out bollard repairs anywhere in Bordon?
We cover all of Bordon (GU35, GU30, GU33 and GU34) and the rest of Hampshire. We also work in Farnham, Aldershot and Fleet.
Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Bordon?
Hampshire County Council is the highway authority covering Bordon's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
How much do bollard repairs cost in Bordon?
In Bordon, typically £125–£475 per visit, typically one to three posts, plus VAT (£145–£565 including VAT for homeowners), using our South East guide prices. We confirm the visit price in writing before attending.
Is a bollard repair visit free?
No. Repairs are paid visits, and we give you the price in writing before anyone attends. Sending photographs first helps us price accurately and bring the right parts.
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.
