Consents, ground and services in Ashford, Surrey
The highway authority for local roads in Ashford, Surrey is Surrey 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 Spelthorne) first — we flag this at survey.
Reinstatement matches what is there, whether tarmac, block paving, flags, resin or turf, though older or weathered surfaces may show a visible patch. 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.

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.

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.
