Building Your Brighton Padel Court
Bespoke Design & Planning
Our team conducts detailed topographic surveys assessing soil composition, drainage patterns, and spatial constraints at your Brighton location. Using 3D modeling software, we create bespoke layouts optimising playability while addressing local planning considerations like noise mitigation and light spill.
Projects range from compact 10x20 m backyard installations in Kemptown to multi-court commercial complexes with spectator areas at Withdean Sports Complex.
Precision Groundworks & Foundations
All installations begin with excavation to 650 mm depth at your Brighton site, followed by compacted Type 1 MOT sub-base and 300 mm reinforced concrete foundations with integrated drainage channels.
We install porous asphalt surfacing with 1:100 cross-fall gradients to handle Brighton’s 914 mm annual rainfall. For sites with existing hardstanding like disused tennis courts in Hove or Withdean, we retrofit galvanised steel ring beams to support enclosure walls.
Professional Court Installation
Wall systems combine 3 m tempered glass panels (12 mm thickness, EN 12150-1 certified) with 1 m powder-coated mesh fencing, anchored via M16 chemical dowels to concrete foundations in Brighton installations.
Playing surfaces feature either FIFA Quality Pro artificial turf with 40 mm sand/rubber infill or textured concrete finishes meeting LTA bounce standards. All installations include LED floodlighting (500 lux minimum) with hooded fixtures to prevent light spill, ideal for courts in Hove, Kemptown, and Withdean.
