Dental Clinic Renovations in Caledon
Shell units in new Mayfield West and Bolton buildings come with a concrete slab, an exposed roof deck, 1 rooftop unit and a capped sanitary line. In Mayfield West that suits a dental clinic, because operatory drains and vacuum lines go in before the floor is finished. Village sites in Inglewood or Alton can add septic design.

Worth knowing first
Village clinics on septic need the system sized for the practice
A dental clinic outside the serviced areas, in a village such as Inglewood or Alton, needs a septic system sized for its daily flow. That flow counts staff and patient washrooms, sterilization sinks and operatory drains. Systems under 10,000 litres per day fall under Part 8 of the Ontario Building Code and are permitted by Town of Caledon Building Services. The ISO 11143 amalgam separator goes upstream of the septic tank. Patients come from a wide rural area, so parking and accessible entrances matter at a Caledon East site too. A septic designer confirms capacity before you sign a lease.

Frequently asked questions
Dental Clinics in Caledon: three local questions
Four things. Zoning confirms a dental office is permitted in that Mayfield West unit. The landlord allows slab cutting and has a sanitary line where operatory drains can connect. The electrical service and the 1 rooftop unit can be upgraded for compressors, vacuum and sterilizers. And the lease says who pays for base-building items such as washrooms and HVAC. We review the Mayfield West shell drawings with you first.
Several parties. Your Bolton landlord approves the drawings first. Town of Caledon Building Services issues the building permit and the occupancy inspection, and ESA inspects electrical work. Ontario's X-ray safety program reviews the X-ray room layout and shielding under the HARP Act before installation. Your equipment supplier commissions the chairs, compressor and vacuum. We sequence all of them to your opening date.
A generator connection is worth roughing in for many clinics outside Bolton, Mayfield West and Caledon East. Compressors, vacuum and sterilizers stop when the power goes out, and outages are more common outside the main settlement areas. A transfer switch and connection point cost far less during construction than after. A permanent generator can come later. Outage history at the site and patient volume decide it.
