Padel Court Installation Across the UK
CE Certified. IPF & LTA Compliant. Turnkey project management from site survey to opening day.
What Does Padel Court Installation Involve?
Installing a padel court is a turnkey construction project. It involves groundwork preparation, structural steelwork, glass installation, surface laying, LED lighting, and final commissioning — all coordinated by a single team from start to finish.
At Total Padel Courts, we manage every stage of your project: from the initial site survey and planning advice through to the day your first ball is hit. Our courts are CE Certified and compliant with both IPF and LTA standards, making them eligible for official competition use from day one.
We install across the entire UK — and internationally.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install padel courts across the whole of the UK?
Yes. We install padel courts throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We also install internationally — we’ve completed projects in Norway, Spain, Austria, Greece, Morocco and Qatar.
Do I need to arrange my own groundworks?
No. Total Padel Courts manages the full project including groundworks. We coordinate base preparation, drainage and the concrete slab as part of our turnkey service.
What surface options are available?
We install ITF and LTA-approved synthetic turf surfaces with sand infill, in a range of colours. Surface specifications vary by court model — we’ll recommend the right option for your use case during the consultation.
Can the court be installed indoors?
Yes. We install both indoor and outdoor padel courts. Indoor installations require additional consideration for ceiling height, ventilation and lighting design — we’ll cover all of this in the site survey.
Is planning permission required?
It depends on your site and court height. Courts under 3m on commercial sports land may be permitted development. We’ll advise you based on your specific location and can help prepare documentation if planning is required.
What certifications do your courts hold?
All Total Padel Courts installations are CE Certified and compliant with IPF (International Padel Federation) and LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) standards. Full certification documentation is provided at handover.
