We love the challenges that come with customer requests and performance requirements. [Working alongside our Alkota Dealers](https://alkota.com/distributors/), we match our clients with the perfect machine with options and enhancements for their cleaning needs. The more unique the request and conditions, the more Alkota shines. Below, we have outlined our typical plan and build process to explain how the process works! ## The Custom Pressure Washer Design Process** ![custom washers](https://alkotasite.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Screen-Shot-2021-03-12-at-11.04.59-AM.png)A client looking for more in their equipment should start by contacting their local Alkota Dealer to begin a custom build. The dealer will be able to collect all the specifications and requirements needed for the project. Once the Alkota Dealer has all the information, they will contact Alkota Sales Department for a quote. Depending on the requirements and research needed, a quote can take from one day to a few weeks. Once the client approves the order, we move forward with the design and engineering process. From here, the bill of materials is generated, and the unit gets scheduled for production. ## **What Qualifies as a Custom Build?** To put it simply, any unit that is not readily available in Alkota’s standard line becomes a custom-built model. ## **Length of Process** The process is length varies from project to project. When a quote is provided, we offer include a general time frame and expectations for the client.  ## **Obstacles/Challenges** Clients coming in with a particular need? Alkota thinks outside the box. When there is a request that we feel unsafe or unrealistic, we will notify the customer and work together on another alternative solution. We love the challenges that come along with custom builds.  ## **What about changes or revisions?** Alkota has been in the business for over 60 years, so we have seen most of these special requests and change requests. Changes can and often affect the process time frame and the completion date delayed. The request specifications will go to engineering for processing. Once this process is done, it then goes back to the sales department if updates are needed on pricing and delivery time frames. ## **Cost** ![custom made pressure washers](https://alkotasite.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Screen-Shot-2021-03-12-at-11.04.56-AM.png) Pricing is based on material, engineering, labor, design changes, and freight costs. Every project is different.  ## **Delivery** We ensure the delivery of a custom pressure washer is hassle-free for the client, from our secure packaging to vetted delivery partners. Our Local Alkota Dealers will take delivery of equipment and provide startup and training of the custom build. ## You Dream it, We’ll build it.
