Building Your Squat Dental Practice: Designed Around You

Plan, design, and build your new dental practice with one trusted team.

Starting a squat practice is exciting, but it can be overwhelming.
From finding premises and managing regulations to coordinating trades and installing equipment, there’s a lot to handle.
We take care of every stage — design, build and compliance — so you can focus on your patients, not your project.

What Makes Building a Squat Practice Challenging?

Creating a new dental practice from scratch means balancing dozens of moving parts. Without a single point of control, it’s easy for timelines and budgets to slip.

  • Understanding HTM 01-05, CQC and building requirements
  • Choosing the right equipment and integrating it properly
  • Managing architects, builders and suppliers separately
  • Keeping to budget while maintaining high standards
  • Avoiding costly mistakes from poor coordination

That’s where having one experienced partner makes all the difference.

Happy Customers

Village dental logo

I have used them for the first time in recent months for a complicated project in carrying out a practice refurbishment. Eclipse were meticulous and brilliant. Very knowledgable engineers and a beautiful finish to my practice. They really are a family based business who will look after you. Very professional company and will definitely keep using them.

Jashan Jethwa – Village Dental

I had my 2 surgery practice completely stripped out and services repositioned with new flooring, new equipment and redecorated. They kept to the agreed time scale and we were up and running in our state-of-the-art new surgery. Thank you Eclipse and I will be using your services again.

Dorothy Quigley – Quigley Dental Practice

I did a lot of research looking for a dental fit-out company before I came across Eclipse Dental. They designed the surgery exactly the way I wanted it to look which suits my requirements perfectly. The final result was phenomenal, just phenomenal!

Dr R. S. Raajanathan – DH Keen Dental Surgery

The engineers that attend our practice are very knowledgeable and always act in a professional manner. If we have an emergency situation John Boyt always tries his best to fit us in. I have no hesitation in recommending Eclipse Dental Engineering to you for all your servicing and breakdown needs.

Susan Sullivan – John Ginty (Dentaria)

Eclipse listened to my ideas, they added a lot to them and improved my initial design. They had loads of realistic and creative ideas for a 21st century dental practice! Two surgeries were refurbished on time without any interruption of our clinics.

Dr Ramin Hassani – Norfolk Square Dental Practice

We would highly recommend the awesome Eclipse team who guided us through the design process, finishing touches and colour schemes. Their ability to combine build works with equipment and dental engineering makes it so much easier and better value.

Mena Williams – Kids-Dental at Marsh House

I am very pleased with the result, it is of a high quality and surpassed my expectations, on the strength of the work done I commissioned some extra wall cabinetry. The whole process was hassle-free and I would be very happy to recommend Eclipse to my friends in the business.

Dr Cullen – Hillcross Dental Practice

We used Eclipse recently in an emergency as we had equipment failure. They were very quick to respond to our call and were able to get us working again within 2 hours. The engineer was very friendly and professional and I would highly recommend this company.

Brian O’Rourke – The Oaks Dental Practice

I would like to express my gratitude to you and your team for your professionalism and prompt response when our dental chair packed up. You attended the same day, removed the damaged chair and installed a rental to allow us to continue practising.

Having dealt with many fit-out companies over the years, Eclipse Dental has been one of the most professional, dependable and sincere companies I have ever worked with. I would not hesitate to use their services again.
