Frequently asked questions
Planning requirements are highly site-specific, depending on factors such as location (e.g., conservation areas), proposed use, height, lighting impact, and potential noise generation. We provide early, expert guidance and can manage the entire planning application process on your behalf to determine and secure all necessary permissions. Explore our planning permission article to explore the latest updates.
Most projects are completed efficiently within several weeks, typically 4-8 weeks from groundworks commencement to final commissioning. This timeframe can vary based on the project's scope, specific ground conditions, and whether the court is an indoor conversion or an outdoor new build.
Absolutely. Indoor padel courts are increasingly popular and represent a significant growth area. They can be successfully installed in suitable warehouse, industrial, or leisure spaces, subject to a detailed feasibility assessment covering structural capacity, ceiling height, ventilation, and access.
Costs for commercial padel courts vary significantly depending on factors such as the number of courts, chosen materials, lighting systems, ground conditions, and any associated building works (e.g., changing rooms, reception areas). We provide detailed, itemised cost guidance following an initial site consultation and design brief. Explore our padel court construction cost calculator for an accurate estimation.
Padel court walls are typically constructed from 10mm or 12mm tempered safety glass panels combined with galvanised steel mesh fencing. The playing surface is usually a high-quality artificial turf (often fibrillated or monofilament) filled with silica sand, chosen for optimal ball bounce, grip, and player comfort.
