Del Webb Reviews in Phoenix Mesa, AZ

Sales agent was outstanding, construction managers not so good. They have very poor followup. I say that because in six months we had three of them.

Project mgr did a great job.

The quality is very poor, the work is like your getting a starter house, as cheap as you can build. This builder does not take pride in building home, issues after issues. I had mold on wood and this builder would not replace the wood, just cover the wood up. Just lots of cheap materials in house.

Working with Ken in sales was really good, he kept us informed about the progress of our home up till it was finished. Our building Supervisor Kohl kept in touch with us on each step of the build and corrected any issues that we had along the way. Right now we're compiling a list of items that need to be corrected and will wait and see how that is handled.

Being on the East coast during the construction was difficult and didn’t have the best updates of construction.

Over all finishing work is less than satisfactory, made a list of things that need to be corrected after 2 weeks , no one has made contact with us after 7 weeks , ,called to see when we could expect some one would be out to our new home, Was told be 3 an a half more weeks , an we have more issues to be corrected . Up graded kitchen cabinets, 3 doors don’t close properly, an 2 drawers don’t close properly , very sloppy painting, spilled pain drops , on our walk through counter tops in kitchen an both baths had a film of dust on them , garage had paint drops every where , concrete finishing work on both patios poor , floor to ceiling glass wall in master shower, water leaks out on to floor . This is not all of our concerns. ... More

Caring attention to all details of home purchase and treating customers/buyers like family.

Pulte tries to build homes too fast. Our tile floor was installed uneven, the grout was not done correctly and we had hazing all over our floors. The bottom of our cabinets were left unfinished and the outdoor cement work had footprints all throughout it.

We were buying what we thought was a great lifestyle in SUn City Festival. That was quickly subdued by the quality of the house we had built for a half million dollars, the extremely high up charges at the design center and the extreme lack of attention to rectify some of the many problems. But we sure have some very nice neighbors.

From almost the beginning where provided misinformation and found the people we worked with to be rigid and on accommodating beyond reason.

All in all a good experience

We are so happy with our home. It is just beautiful and spacious. The numerous options offered were great and right in line with current design trends. Our project manager was terrific and communicated with us often as to progress of our home, which made us feel so comfortable.

You get what you order. Everything looks great. They did an excellent job of keeping us informed about the construction, since we could not be in Az when the house was being built. All in all they provide a quality product that we are very happy to live in.

Pulte has a great program for ensuring that buyers get what they want and pay only for that.

Mark is very knowledgeable about the homes and lots. He always went above his duties as an agent he makes you feel like you’re the only one he’s dealing with.

Alec has been great to work during the pandemic.

Keep in contact with the building superintendent and ask questions if you're not sure of anything. If possible visit the home site as much as you can and inspect the progress.

Builders team was great

Lack of flexibility in changes is a problem. Most new owners spend the first month after move in redoing the interior of the house, discarding things Pulte put in and spending much money on replacements. Work crews show no pride in their workmanship. Many trades do substandard work which has to be redone three times to get it right. Don't expect the contractors to know what they are doing from the guys who pour the slabs to completion. Concrete guys will miss walk in showers, placement of patio door frames, fireplace foundations and other supports. Framers seldom cut a board the correct length...usually about an inch short and then use 15 nails to span the gap. HVAC guys put duct work in, the next day the insulation guys cut all the duct support straps. Three weeks later the HVAC guys come back in and re-straps the ductwork in a hurried and substandard way. Meanwhile, the worksite looks like a dump with debris blowing all over the neighborhood. Not one tradesman leaves the the worksite clean. Not only is it making the neighbor messy, debris is blowing into the desert and White Tank Mountain Regional Park. ... More

Small problems (two doors don't latch), but the house is lovely. Del Webb has a great interior design center.

Plan on going over budget at design center

The individual in charge of the build was very professional and paid attention to detail

I closed on my new home at Del Web Sun City in Buckeye AZ in July; but have not moved in yet. I plan to move in at the end of September. At the final walk through I was very happy with the final product. My Construction manager was excellent and did a great job. I found the Design Center staff to be very unprofessional and non-responsive to errors they made in documenting my choices and was forced to live with their errors. Some of the material choices where not current as far as technology, ie Can Lights and Controls; window material vinyl versus wood or fiberglass.

Lot initially was laid out incorrectly. Two managers/superintendents were fired/replaced during the building. Impossible to coordinate any problems between design and building. No one could correct a mistake in number of lights in one bedroom. Design center rep would not respond to phone calls or emails. Building site was a disgusting mess most days.

Our home is very nice - but leaving a dirt square by our front door is very disappointing. It wouldn’t have taken very much to cement our front patio since there is a cement walkway RIGHT NEXT TO IT that leads to our front door. The pony wall that surrounds the dirt area is attached to the house, therefore it is “part” of the house. We feel the house is not finished.
