Why Yateley sites book replacement bollards
What replacement bollards usually sort out in Yateley:
- Upgrading posts that keep being hit
- Posts bent, sheared or broken by vehicle impacts
- Crushed sockets and failed telescopic cassettes
What we check first in Yateley
Hampshire County Council is the highway authority covering Yateley's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
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 Hart) first — we flag this at survey.
Where a replacement is being made after an impact, the surrounding paving and kerbs are checked as well, because a vehicle that bent a post has often lifted or cracked the surface beside it, and that damage is included in the quote rather than left for later. Reinstatement matches the surrounding surface, though weathered paving and older tarmac may leave a visible patch.
- On public highway, the highway authority may need to approve the replacement or carry out the work itself.
- Upgrades to rated products must use the manufacturer's tested foundation, specified with your security adviser.
What happens on site
Survey and match
At the free site survey we measure the existing bollards, photograph the line and check the foundations. A fixed written quote sets out like-for-like and any upgrade options.
Order the replacement
Matching posts, sockets or castings are ordered, and you see details of any close equivalent before it is confirmed.
Remove the old bollard
The damaged post is cut or extracted and the old foundation broken out, checking for services as the hole is opened.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Like-for-like | Same diameter, height, finish and fixing, so the line looks unchanged. |
| Making safe | Removing or capping a dangerous broken stub before the replacement is fitted. |
| Crash-rated upgrade | Replacing unrated posts with tested products, installed to the manufacturer's foundation design and specified with your security adviser. |
What moves the price in Yateley
Our South East guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Yateley firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Matching special finishes, castings or discontinued products
- Upgrades that need larger foundations
- Making safe before the replacement
Keeping them working
After replacement, look at why the post failed. A single impact on a rarely struck post is bad luck; repeated strikes in the same spot point to a layout problem, such as a tight turn or a missing wheel stop, that a stronger bollard alone will not solve.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Yateley.

A driver hit our bollard and left: what should we do?

Yes. We measure and match the existing posts so the new one sits in line at the same height and finish. If the original product is no longer made, we show you a close equivalent first.
