Common reasons for replacement bollards in Warwick
What replacement bollards usually sort out in Warwick:
- Posts bent, sheared or broken by vehicle impacts
- Upgrading posts that keep being hit
- Crushed sockets and failed telescopic cassettes
Before we dig in Warwick
The highway authority for local roads in Warwick is Warwickshire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
Many private-land installations in Warwick need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at Warwickshire County Council before posts go in.
Upgrades to rated products usually need a completely new, larger foundation. Where a replacement is being made after an impact, the surrounding paving and kerbs are checked as well, because a vehicle that bent a post has often lifted or cracked the surface beside it, and that damage is included in the quote rather than left for later.
- On public highway, the highway authority may need to approve the replacement or carry out the work itself.
- 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
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.
Hand over records
Photographs and an itemised invoice are provided, which is useful when recovering the cost from a driver's insurer.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Change of type | Swapping fixed posts for removable, telescopic, flexible or polymer bollards to suit how the site is used. |
| 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 Warwick, these make the biggest difference:
- Size and condition of the old foundation
- Surface type and reinstatement
- Matching special finishes, castings or discontinued products
Looking after them
Treat new posts as part of your routine inspections: check for lean, chips and faded bands. 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 Warwick, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.
Common questions
Which parts of Warwick do you cover for replacement bollards?
We cover all of Warwick (CV34, CV33, CV32 and CV31) and the rest of Warwickshire. We also work in Kenilworth, Stratford-upon-Avon and Coventry.
Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Warwick?
Warwickshire County Council is the highway authority covering Warwick's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
How much do replacement bollards cost in Warwick?
In Warwick, 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 £445 plus VAT, using our West Midlands guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
What happens to the old bollard?
It is taken away with the broken-out concrete. Steel and iron are recycled where possible. Original heritage bollards can be returned to you if you want to keep them.
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.
