Typical replacement bollards requests in Rugby
Typical reasons for replacement bollards in Rugby:
- Cracked cast iron or chipped concrete bollards
- Crushed sockets and failed telescopic cassettes
- Single missing posts in an otherwise sound line
Before we dig in Rugby
Warwickshire County Council is the highway authority covering Rugby'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 Rugby) first — we flag this at survey.
Upgrades to rated products usually need a completely new, larger foundation. If the old foundation is cracked from the impact, it is removed entirely; if it is sound and suits the new post, reuse can reduce disruption.
- Upgrades to rated products must use the manufacturer's tested foundation, specified with your security adviser.
- Where bollards were required by a planning condition, a security plan or a lease, check that any change of type still meets that requirement.
What happens on site
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.
Order the replacement
Matching posts, sockets or castings are ordered, and you see details of any close equivalent before it is confirmed.
Hand over records
Photographs and an itemised invoice are provided, which is useful when recovering the cost from a driver's insurer.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| Like-for-like | Same diameter, height, finish and fixing, so the line looks unchanged. |
Pricing replacement bollards in Rugby
Two Rugby jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Matching special finishes, castings or discontinued products
- Surface type and reinstatement
- Size and condition of the old foundation
Looking after them
Keep a record of the new product, finish and supplier so future replacements match. 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 Rugby.

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.
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.
