Drainage
Drainage design and installation for padel courts — surface water management that protects foundations, surfacing, and surrounding landscape.
Water is padel's hidden adversary. Poor drainage causes surface pooling, accelerated turf wear, frost damage, and foundation instability. Effective drainage design starts during site assessment, not after problems appear.
We specify falls, channel layouts, and sub-surface drainage matched to your site's topography and soil permeability.
Civil works
Assessment of natural drainage paths and water table levels.
Gradient design for efficient water shedding from the court.
French drains and carrier pipes where soil permeability is low.
Connection to existing drainage or soakaway systems.
Design that protects courts during heavy rainfall events.
Inspection points and clear-out arrangements for long-term care.
Good to know
Effective drainage is what lets a UK padel court play through wet weather.
We design permeable sub-bases, channel drains, and outfalls sized for local rainfall and ground conditions, integrated with the foundation build.
Get drainage right and the court sheds water in minutes; get it wrong and standing water shortens surface life and stops play.
“The two-court club installation was managed professionally from specification through commissioning. Mejor Set enclosures look exceptional and our members were playing within weeks of groundworks starting.”
“Our garden court required careful drainage planning on a sloped plot. The team specified a Padel Galis system that fits beautifully within our landscaping and plays brilliantly year-round.”
“Four courts at our leisure centre were delivered on programme with minimal disruption to members. The AFP specification offered excellent value and the courts have handled heavy daily usage without issue.”
“Adding padel to our country hotel has been transformative for guest bookings. The consultation process helped us understand ROI before committing, and the finished courts exceed expectations.”
