Before we dig in Egham
In Egham, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Surrey County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
Many private-land installations in Egham 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 the council for Runnymede before posts go in.
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. Many repairs are really foundation repairs.
- 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.
How the job runs
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.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Caps, hinges and bands | Replacement caps and heads, hinge pins or assemblies on fold-down posts, and new reflective bands. |
| Cassette clearing | Emptying silt and water from telescopic and semi-automatic cassettes and clearing their drainage. |
| Re-bedding | Breaking out a failed foundation and resetting the existing post plumb in new concrete, then reinstating the surface. |
What affects the quote
When we price bollard repairs in Egham, these make the biggest difference:
- Access, traffic management and working hours
- Making safe before the main repair
- Availability of matching parts, locks and caps
Keeping them working
Keep a record of bollard types, suppliers, key numbers and colours on site, so a repair can be quoted and matched quickly when it is needed. Most repair call-outs come from small problems left too long.
If posts in Egham are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.
Common questions
Which parts of Egham do you cover for bollard repairs?
We cover all of Egham (TW20, GU25, KT16 and KT15) and the rest of Surrey. We also work in Staines, Ashford, Surrey and Windsor.
Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Egham?
Surrey County Council is the highway authority covering Egham'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 Egham?
In Egham, typically £135–£515 per visit, typically one to three posts, plus VAT (£155–£615 including VAT for homeowners), using our London guide prices. We confirm the visit price in writing before attending.
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.
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.
