What we check first in Chepstow
Local roads and pavements in Chepstow are the responsibility of Monmouthshire County Council as highway authority, with the Welsh Government's trunk road agents handling trunk roads. Posts on the public highway need that authority's consent; private land does not.
Many private-land installations in Chepstow need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at Monmouthshire County Council before posts go in.
Many repairs are really foundation repairs. Sockets and cassettes are reset to the exact finished surface level, with drainage restored beneath.
- Do not repair crash-rated bollards in ways that change the tested product; involve the manufacturer.
- Make damaged posts safe promptly, as a leaning post or open socket on a footway is a trip hazard.
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.
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.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Re-fixing base plates | New resin anchors in fresh positions, a larger plate to spread the load, or a slab repair before re-fixing. |
| Caps, hinges and bands | Replacement caps and heads, hinge pins or assemblies on fold-down posts, and new reflective bands. |
| Coatings | Touch-up or full repainting of steel and cast iron posts to stop corrosion taking hold. |
What affects the quote
Our Wales guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Chepstow firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Making safe before the main repair
- Type of repair and number of posts
- Whether foundations or slabs need breaking out
Keeping them working
Most repair call-outs come from small problems left too long. Lubricating locks a few times a year, lifting removable and telescopic posts periodically, keeping cassettes clear of grit, touching up chipped paint and checking for lean after knocks will prevent many of them.
If posts in Chepstow are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.

Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Chepstow?
In Chepstow the highway authority for local roads is Monmouthshire County Council. We confirm whether the ground is adopted highway before quoting, because bollards on a public footway need its agreement first.

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.
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.
