Site feasibility & planning — before you commit a penny.
Most padel projects go wrong long before the first digger arrives. We survey the site, assess the ground, look at access and planning, and give you a clear, written answer on what's realistically possible.
Is your site suitable for padel?
A padel site feasibility review looks at usable space, court layout, levels, drainage, access, services, neighbouring uses, planning context and likely construction cost before significant money is committed.
A Site Feasibility Review is the single most useful thing any prospective padel court owner can do. We come out to the site, walk the land, ask the awkward questions, and write up what we find in plain English.
You leave with a clear view of court count, layout options, likely costs, planning context, timeline and the risks worth knowing about. If your site isn't right for padel, we'll tell you that too — and save you a much bigger bill later.
What we actually do.
On-site survey
We walk the site with you, take measurements, assess access, levels, services and the surrounding context.
Ground assessment
An informed read on the existing ground, drainage and what the base and earthworks will need to look like.
Court layout options
Indicative CAD layouts showing realistic court counts, orientation, run-off and spectator space.
Initial planning assessment
Identify likely constraints, change-of-use considerations and the specialist information that may be required if the project progresses. Planning requirements vary by site and proposal.
Indicative cost plan
An honest, range-based cost plan so you can stress-test the business case before you commit.
Written report
A concise feasibility document you can share with partners, investors or your board.
Get this stage right or pay for it later.
We've seen too many projects where the site was wrong from day one — the drainage couldn't cope, the access was a nightmare, the planning context was hostile or the layout left no room to actually play comfortably.
A proper feasibility review costs a fraction of a build and protects every pound that comes after it. It's the single best decision you can make at the start of a padel project.
Once the site works.
Once we know the site works, Build & Padel can also help compare suitable court specifications and manufacturing options.
Planning requirements vary by site and proposal. New structures, floodlighting, changes of use, opening hours, noise and surrounding properties can all affect the planning route.
Ready to move beyond feasibility?
If the opportunity stacks up, our Planning & Project Development service can take the project into concept development, specialist coordination, planning, technical specification and procurement.
