Building a padel court: what costs are involved?
At the question "What does it cost to build a padel court?" several factors play an important role in the final cost of a padel court. The construction of a padel court can be fully customised to suit your specific wants and needs, the space available, and the intended purpose of the track, whether recreational or professional use.
The price is influenced, among other things, by the choice between an indoor or outdoor court, the type of surface, the type of cage construction, and the type of artificial grass you choose. In addition, optional features such as lighting, scoreboards, and accessories can contribute to the final cost. With all these elements, the price of a padel court is customised to create a court that offers years of playing pleasure.

The payback period of a padel court depends on usage, location, rental income and maintenance. With intensive use and good occupancy rates, a padel court can pay for itself in 3 to 5 years.

Yes, with the rising popularity of padel, a padel court can quickly become profitable. Clubs, entrepreneurs and municipalities often recoup their investment through rentals, memberships or events.
A single court (for 1 v 1) is smaller and therefore cheaper to build than a double court (for 2 v 2). Costs for a single court start from around €25,000, while a standard double court costs between €32,500 and €95,000, depending on indoor or outdoor and the materials chosen.
On top of construction costs, there may be additional costs such as permits, transport, installation of fencing or club facilities (such as changing rooms or catering). You should also include recurring costs such as maintenance, cleaning and insurance in your budget.
Cage construction
The cage construction is one of the biggest investments in a padel court. At Allesvoorpadel, we offer cage structures with various options, including panoramic padel courts which offer a beautiful unobstructed view of the field. The material, finish, and type of glass affect the cost. For a standard pillar cage including installation, prices range from €20,000 to €33,000.
The choice of artificial grass plays a major role in both the playing quality and the lifespan of the court. Our artificial grass is top quality and is supplied by Mondo or Grass Partners. The cost of artificial grass varies between €26.00 and €35.00 per m², depending on the type and colour. Moreover, we can personalise the grass with logos, which gives clubs a nice extra look.
Lighting
Good lighting is essential for padel courts, especially when playing in the evenings. Lighting a court requires a specific lighting plan, taking into account minimum lighting levels for an optimal playing experience. On average, the cost for point lighting including connection and installation is between €2,500 and €4,900. The cost of line lighting including connection and installation averages between €6,000 and €8,000.
Subsoil and groundwork
To build a padel court, a suitable surface is crucial. Outdoor courts require additional groundwork, such as drainage and sand layers to allow water to pass through properly. The price for groundwork can vary, depending on the state of the existing surface and any additional features, such as drainage and foundations. Groundwork costs are very dependent on the situation, and a thorough on-site survey is therefore recommended.
The type of venue, indoor or outdoor, largely determines the cost. Indoor padel courts usually require fewer reinforcement points, and no groundwork is required. This makes an indoor court more economical to build. In addition, an indoor padel court must meet height requirements: a minimum height of 6.5 metres is required, preferably even 8 metres. Costs indoor padel court start from around €32,500, and adapting to an existing space (e.g. a gymnasium) can lower the cost.
