A wider refurbishment can make sense when several parts of your practice need attention at the same time, or when one change affects the way other areas work.
You may be adding clinical capacity, updating ageing rooms, improving patient or staff areas, replacing equipment or reconsidering how people move through the building.
Looking at the practice as a whole helps you set priorities before individual rooms, finishes or equipment are specified.
It also makes it easier to identify which changes should be completed together and which can be phased.
A surgery refurbishment or room conversion can form part of the wider project, with the surrounding services, access and shared facilities planned around it.

Changes in one part of your practice can create requirements elsewhere.
Adding another surgery, for example, may affect decontamination capacity, plant equipment, storage, services and how patients and staff move between rooms.
That is why the wider layout needs to be considered alongside individual spaces.
We can review the clinical areas, patient-facing spaces, staff facilities and infrastructure that support them, then coordinate the work around the relationships between those areas.
This helps you plan the refurbishment as one connected project, even when the work itself is completed in stages.
Bring together the rooms, services and finishes involved in improving your existing practice.
Surgeries, decontamination and imaging areas planned around treatment, workflow and equipment.
Reception, waiting areas and other patient-facing spaces within the wider practice.
Corridors, entrances and routes for patients, staff, contractors and deliveries.
Staff rooms, offices and storage planned around the way your team uses the practice.
Suction, compressed air, plumbing, electrics, ventilation, data and shared infrastructure.
Flooring, lighting, cabinetry and decoration coordinated across the areas being refurbished.
If you are planning improvements across your dental practice, tell us what you are looking to change and where you are in the planning process.
We can review the areas involved, your priorities, existing equipment and how the work may need to fit around the way your practice operates.

A refurbishment starts with understanding what needs to improve across your practice and which decisions affect other parts of the project.
Review the existing layout, equipment, services and day-to-day workflow before specifying finishes. This helps you identify which elements need replacing, which can be retained or relocated and which changes are best completed together. You can then set priorities around:

Refurbishment in an operating practice needs careful planning around staff, patients, contractors and the services that keep the building running.
Before work starts, we review which areas can be isolated, how contractors and deliveries will access the site and whether shared services could be affected. Equipment may also need to be removed, relocated or reinstalled as rooms are completed.
Where several areas are involved, sequencing becomes especially important. Some work may be planned around quieter periods, temporary arrangements or agreed closures, depending on the building and the scope of the project.
Eclipse has experience working in live dental practices, including phased projects where areas were completed while the practice continued operating. The exact approach depends on the layout, access and services involved.

Every refurbishment has different priorities.
These projects show how existing dental practices can be updated as one larger project or through planned phases.
At 7Oaks Clinic, Eclipse completed a full fit-out and refurbishment across the practice.
Alexanders Dental Practice was delivered in two phases, with the final surgery completed after the practice had opened.
At New Lavender House, three surgeries dating back to the 1970s were refurbished before a later project converted the upstairs flat while the practice remained operational.
Your refurbishment can cover several areas of the practice, including surgeries, reception and waiting areas, decontamination, imaging, staff facilities, storage and plant. It can also include flooring, lighting, cabinetry, decoration and the services connecting these areas.
In some projects, parts of the practice can remain operational while work is completed elsewhere. This depends on the building, access, shared services and the areas being refurbished. We review these factors when planning the sequence of work.
Yes. Phasing can be useful when you want to spread improvements across different areas or need to plan work around an operating practice. The sequence needs to consider shared services, equipment and how later phases connect with completed work.
Often, yes. Existing equipment can be reviewed as part of the planning process to determine what can remain in place, what could be relocated and what may need replacing. This also helps identify any changes needed to services or infrastructure.
Yes. An existing room can be given a new function as part of a wider project, such as creating an additional surgery, decontamination room or other clinical space. The surrounding services, access and workflow also need to be considered.
The main factors include the size and condition of the practice, the number of areas involved, building work, equipment requirements, infrastructure changes, access and whether the project needs to be phased around an operating practice.
Eclipse carries out dental practice refurbishment projects across London, the Home Counties and the wider South East. Selected projects elsewhere can also be considered depending on the scope and location.

Eclipse is an amazing company, always responding promptly when we require their assistance. They are providing yearly maintenance and repairs and we were never disappointed.

I had an excellent experience with Eclipse. Their expertise and attention to detail, and professionalism were outstanding from start to finish. The customer service is exceptional, always clear and efficient. I cannot recommend them enough.

Recently moved over to Eclipse from another company and i’m so glad we did. Their pricing is very competitive and they are very good with communication unlike the previous company we were using. We recently had our servicing completed and were very happy! Highly recommend this company!

We highly recommend Eclipse Dental to any dental practice looking for high quality equipment and reliable support. From supplying our dental chairs, CBCT scanner and autoclave to helping us set up our clinic within a very short time frame, it’s been a great experience working with them.

Always responsive, always helpful and have got us out of trouble in a matter of hours on many an occasion! Consistently good service and knowledgeable engineers at reasonable prices. Have already recommended to colleagues.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
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.

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.

Excellent service, Eclipse have worked tirelessly for us and have always come out same day if we have a problem stopping us working. Thanks to all at Eclipse.

Their awareness of CQC regulations regarding equipment relocation and our necessity to minimise downtime was brilliant. We would like to recommend Eclipse Dental to anyone considering a refurbishment or relocation.

Very happy with the service and reliability of the team. From the beginning to the end, everyone was always helpful and very kind. I definitely will recommend Eclipse Dental!

I liked how swiftly the projects were done. Everything was managed, everything was timed and everything was coordinated. And every day we saw something happening. It was very exciting.

The quality of craftsmanship was exceptional—the cabinetry, flooring and all custom elements were made precisely to our specifications and aligned perfectly with our vision for the space.

Brilliant. Just professional! Complete refit of surgery. Flawless.

The boys did well! We didn’t give them much time to prepare but they did a great job, extremely pleased.

We have had the chairs for some time now and are happy with them. They serve what we need them for. The aftercare service is excellent

Eclipse are very flexible and listen to your needs. We are very impressed with the quality of workmanship they delivered. I would not hesitate to continue recommending Eclipse.

Eclipse were always accommodating of any requests and would always go the extra mile. I look forward to working with them for many years to come.

We are delighted with the end result. The practice looks good and, more importantly, works ergonomically and efficiently.
