Before we dig in Stratford-upon-Avon
Warwickshire County Council is the highway authority covering Stratford-upon-Avon's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
If your site in Stratford-upon-Avon is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Stratford-on-Avon) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Breaking out is done carefully near services, particularly where cables have been laid close to posts since the original installation. 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.
- On public highway, the highway authority may need to approve the replacement or carry out the work itself.
From survey to handover
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.
Hand over records
Photographs and an itemised invoice are provided, which is useful when recovering the cost from a driver's insurer.
Finishes and options
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Matched finishes | RAL powder coat, stainless grade and finish, or heritage paint schemes matched to the existing line. |
| Heavier section | Larger diameter, thicker wall or concrete-filled steel where posts keep getting bent. |
| Like-for-like | Same diameter, height, finish and fixing, so the line looks unchanged. |
What affects the quote
When we price replacement bollards in Stratford-upon-Avon, these make the biggest difference:
- Making safe before the replacement
- Upgrades that need larger foundations
- Number of posts and the product chosen
Keeping them working
Keep a record of the new product, finish and supplier so future replacements match. 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 Stratford-upon-Avon, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.
