Northern Dental Alliance member Heritage Construction Companies, LLC of Elk River: Richfield MN Dentist's Office Remodeling

Each year NDA member Heritage Construction Companies, LLC of Elk River, Minnesota develops many dental practices and other healthcare related offices throughout the state and region, as well as other retail and commercial sites.


Featured Dental Practice: Paul Berg, DDS, Richfield Minnesota

Remodeling: Basic Details
  • Location: Richfield, MN
  • Architect: The Foundation Architects
  • Size: 922 sq. ft.
  • Type of Construction: Interior Remodel Timeframe: 10 days
SEE entire case study at Heritage Construction Companies website.


Dentist, Dr. Paul Berg's Testimonial
“We had Heritage Construction complete the remodel for my dental office. They worked seamlessly with the architect and designer. There were no surprises on the financial or the design side. They did exactly what the architect had designed and did it in exactly the time budgeted."


Continued: Dr. Paul Berg's Testimonial "The advantage with Heritage is that they had completed several other dental offices and they know the importance of getting the project done quickly so we can get back to work. We were also able to work around the construction so that we could stay open."

Final part: Richfield Dentist, Dr. Berg's Testimonial 
"Dan, the job superintendent, kept the subs coordinated and chipped in whenever needed. The subs were efficient and courteous. We were very happy with the whole process and would not hesitate to hire them again for our next project. We highly recommend Andrew Harvala and Heritage construction. ” 

Heritage Construction began in 2004 when Andrew Christensen started the general contractor business to serve the Northwest suburbs of Minneapolis, Minnesota and into Central Wisconsin to build commercial and retail buildings that fit the needs of the business, the business owner and the area.



Again Andy Christensen,
"We have been successfully building, remodeling and servicing dental clinics for the many years. With our combined knowledge, experience and skill set, we have become experts in the dental industry. Many dentists in Minnesota and the surrounding states already know about our construction company, whether we have built or remodeled their practice or not. This is because we support the Northwest Dentistry Journal and regularly participate in dental events, including attending the main three MN dental meetings every year.”

Financial EXIT Strategy: $ Maximizing Business Valuations $

Selling your business is a very important time in your life as well as your employees, customers and even community. For dentists and dental offices, it also comes down to the health of their patients. Rick Epple, a NDA member, is involved in the following forum which will help dentists and other businesses manage this transition so you can make healthy decisions for all...

Minnesota area dentists and other business owners are invited to a BABO (Bring a Business Owner) Event on Friday, March 19, 2010 (details below).

This financial talk and business forum are sponsored by Rick Epple, CFP®, of Epple Financial Advisors, LLC (Northern Dental Alliance member) and Margaret A. T. Cronin of Grandchamp, Guyette & Cronin, PLLC.

Sooner or later, you, like every dental practice owner, will need to transfer ownership of your business. Selling the your dental office is the final part or your role in building it. For most business owners, this is an emotional event. It is also a complex process involving financial auditing, confidentiality issues, title transfers, price negotiations, all while continuing to run your dental office.

Our keynote speaker, Thomas W. Lyons, will address common questions for business owners to consider, including:
  1. How much is your dental office worth?
  2. How will you know the right time to sell your dental office?
  3. How can you protect your assets when retiring?
  4. Are there things you can do to prepare for the eventual sale or transfer or your business?
  5. How can you minimize the taxes due at the time of the sale of your business?
Lyon's presentation will be followed by a panel discussion of experts in the legal, financial, and business valuations areas.

Keynote Speaker
Thomas W. Lyons Founding partner of Faelon Partners, Ltd., a mergers, acquisitions, and consulting firm.


The Panel
Friday, March 19th, 2010 7:30-9:30 a.m.
Golden Valley Golf & Country Club
7001 Golden Valley Road
Golden Valley, MN 55427

SPACE is LIMITED
