Permissions and groundwork in Dungannon
In Dungannon, as everywhere in Northern Ireland, public roads and footways are looked after by DfI Roads rather than the council. If a post would sit on adopted footway, that consent comes first; private forecourts and car parks are a matter for the owner.
If your site in Dungannon is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Mid Ulster District Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Removing an old bollard often reveals more concrete than expected, because foundations from different eras vary widely in size. Upgrades to rated products usually need a completely new, larger foundation.
- Where bollards were required by a planning condition, a security plan or a lease, check that any change of type still meets that requirement.
- Keep gaps and visibility bands in line with Inclusive Mobility guidance when replacing posts on pedestrian routes.
From survey to handover
Make safe
If a broken post or stub is a hazard, it can be removed or capped first. That is priced separately in writing so you can approve it on its own.
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.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Like-for-like | Same diameter, height, finish and fixing, so the line looks unchanged. |
| Matched finishes | RAL powder coat, stainless grade and finish, or heritage paint schemes matched to the existing line. |
| Change of type | Swapping fixed posts for removable, telescopic, flexible or polymer bollards to suit how the site is used. |
Pricing replacement bollards in Dungannon
When we price replacement bollards in Dungannon, these make the biggest difference:
- Number of posts and the product chosen
- Upgrades that need larger foundations
- Matching special finishes, castings or discontinued products
Looking after them
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. Treat new posts as part of your routine inspections: check for lean, chips and faded bands.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Dungannon.
Common questions
Do you carry out replacement bollards in Dungannon?
We cover all of Dungannon (BT71 and BT70) and the rest of Mid Ulster. We also work in Cookstown, Armagh and Portadown.
Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Dungannon?
Across Northern Ireland the Department for Infrastructure's DfI Roads is the roads authority, so bollards on a public footway or road in Dungannon need its agreement before anything is dug. Posts on your own land do not.
How much do replacement bollards cost in Dungannon?
In Dungannon, typically £215–£1,195 per post replaced, old post and footing removed, plus VAT (£255–£1,445 including VAT for homeowners), with a minimum job of £435 plus VAT, using our Northern Ireland guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Can a new bollard reuse the old foundation?
Sometimes, if the old foundation is sound and suits the new post. Foundations cracked by an impact are broken out. Rated bollards always need the manufacturer's tested foundation.
A driver hit our bollard and left: what should we do?
Make the area safe, photograph the damage and report it if the post is on public land. Check whether CCTV covered the area. A written quote from us can then support any claim.
