Before we dig in Newport, Newport
Before digging near the kerb in Newport, Newport we establish who owns the ground: adopted footways are Newport City Council's responsibility, trunk roads the Welsh Government's, and everything else belongs to the site owner.
If your site in Newport, Newport is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Newport City Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Upgrades to rated products usually need a completely new, larger foundation. Breaking out is done carefully near services, particularly where cables have been laid close to posts since the original installation.
- Keep gaps and visibility bands in line with Inclusive Mobility guidance when replacing posts on pedestrian routes.
- Upgrades to rated products must use the manufacturer's tested foundation, specified with your security adviser.
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.
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 |
|---|---|
| Change of type | Swapping fixed posts for removable, telescopic, flexible or polymer bollards to suit how the site is used. |
| 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. |
Pricing replacement bollards in Newport, Newport
Two Newport, Newport jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Surface type and reinstatement
- Size and condition of the old foundation
- Upgrades that need larger foundations
After installation
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.
For damaged or loose posts in Newport, Newport, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.

Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Newport, Newport?

Should we replace like-for-like or upgrade?
Like-for-like if the post was hit once in an unusual incident. Consider an upgrade if the same position is struck repeatedly or the post no longer suits how the site is used. The survey will show which makes sense.
Can you replace just one bollard in a line?
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.
