Consents, ground and services in Walsall
The highway authority for local roads in Walsall is Walsall 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.
If your site in Walsall is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Walsall Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
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. Reinstatement matches the surrounding surface, though weathered paving and older tarmac may leave a visible patch.
- Where bollards were required by a planning condition, a security plan or a lease, check that any change of type still meets that requirement.
- Upgrades to rated products must use the manufacturer's tested foundation, specified with your security adviser.
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.
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.
Install the new post
The new bollard is set in a fresh foundation, aligned with its neighbours and the surface is reinstated to match.

|---|---|
| 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. |
| Heavier section | Larger diameter, thicker wall or concrete-filled steel where posts keep getting bent. |
