What we check first in Hounslow
The highway authority for local roads in Hounslow is Hounslow Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Red routes are managed by Transport for London. Bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
If your site in Hounslow is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Hounslow Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Reinstatement matches the surrounding surface, though weathered paving and older tarmac may leave a visible patch. Removing an old bollard often reveals more concrete than expected, because foundations from different eras vary widely in size.
- Upgrades to rated products must use the manufacturer's tested foundation, specified with your security adviser.
- Keep gaps and visibility bands in line with Inclusive Mobility guidance when replacing posts on pedestrian routes.
From survey to handover
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.
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.
Install the new post
The new bollard is set in a fresh foundation, aligned with its neighbours and the surface is reinstated to match.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Crash-rated upgrade | Replacing unrated posts with tested products, installed to the manufacturer's foundation design and specified with your security adviser. |
| Matched finishes | RAL powder coat, stainless grade and finish, or heritage paint schemes matched to the existing line. |
| Making safe | Removing or capping a dangerous broken stub before the replacement is fitted. |
