Which general contractor should a dentist hire for a new office in Dallas?
Hire one that has built dental and medical space, that talks to your equipment supplier before the walls are framed, and that gives you a real estimate before you sign the lease. A dental office looks simple from the waiting room. Behind it are plumbing to every operatory, vacuum and compressed air, a mechanical room, imaging and sterilization, all set by the equipment you choose.
Brident Dental and Cool Smiles Dental are on Harrison Construction’s client list, and a 10,000 sq ft Kool Smiles finish-out in Midland is on our project records. In the Dallas area, our records include the Farma Keio Retina Center finish-out and a QuikMed renovation, both in Richardson.
Medical office finish-outs in Dallas
A medical finish-out is planned around patient flow and the equipment in each room. Exam and procedure rooms need the right plumbing, power, lighting and wall backing; imaging rooms have shielding and layout requirements set by the equipment and the reviewing authorities; and sound separation between rooms matters more than in most commercial space.
Many Dallas practices lease in medical office buildings, where the building has its own rules for working hours, deliveries, shared systems and after-hours work. We collect them at the start, so they are in the price and the schedule.
What to settle before you sign the lease
Most cost surprises in a practice build-out come from the space, not the design. These are the questions we answer in pre-construction.
- Plumbing under the slaboperatories and exam rooms need supply and waste where the chairs and sinks go. On a slab on grade that means trenching; on an upper floor it means working above the ceiling of the tenant below.
- Electrical serviceimaging, sterilizers, compressors and vacuum pumps add load. The suite’s service has to carry it or be upgraded.
- Mechanicalventilation and temperature control for treatment rooms, the lab and the mechanical room, checked against the existing units.
- Accessibilityaccessible routes, restrooms and reception. Texas requires an accessibility review by a registered accessibility specialist for larger commercial projects.
- The work letterwhat the landlord delivers, what the allowance covers and what is left for the practice to pay.
Opening a second office or remodeling the first
A practice that adds operatories or exam rooms usually cannot close. We plan the phases and the after-hours work with you before pricing. For a second location, what worked in the first office, from the equipment layout to the finish schedule, is reused and priced early.
From Fort Worth to Dallas
Our office is in north Fort Worth, and Dallas, Richardson, Irving and Plano are part of our everyday service area. Lonnie Harrison, who founded the company in 2011, spent five years in medical construction with a general contractor before that. Alex Lioumis, VP of Operations, oversees the field, and Anne Hickey coordinates the schedule and the subcontractors.
