Del Webb Reviews

Been here 2 months and had to have the HVAC technician, the plumber and the cabinet company back to fix items that were not caught in the pulte final walkthrough. Such as one of the pullout cabinet shelves broken, all the faucets/showerheads had to be blown out as there was sediment in each and a water line was blocking access to the humidifier. Very disappointing.

Our first impression when walking the model homes was great. During our build there were a lot of mistakes made. The construction manager we had at first did his best to help fix things. the second manager liked to talk a lot and did not get things fixed. We closed on our house with defects noted and currently no one has come to fix them. The tile layer needs to be taught haw to lay tile, uneven and poorly laid. The painters like to use your kitchen sink to clean their tools and scratch it to pieces as noted to both construction managers and still has not been replaced. There final clean is something called construction clean. You will have to clean your house yourself when they are done because it is filthy. I Truley would like to say something good about my experience, however I feel they are building 500,000-700,000 track homes instead of high-end homes for the money. ... More

The quality of the workmanship on my home is below average. The subcontractors have no respect for your home. They seem very less than skilled. We are to the point where I want to hire my own people to fix the problems that have not been addressed.

Simply put, glad this experience is over.

Had major issue with laundry room door wall not square and thus it was not parallel with the hall-way flooring then the laundry room itself had its own tile off another 5-10 degrees off parallel. Wall around shower was off perpendicular about 5 degrees and really showed with more space of wall at top than bottom by the tile. Many windows were not trimmed parallel or square. While these were all fixed within 2 weeks of finding them and right at closing, they would not have been fixed if we had not come down to check on the house 2 weeks before closing. Found an entire cereal bowl full of construction debris (masking tape ends, insulation, electrical wiring trimmings and a metal key) in the sink disposal after we closed. Still have not gotten a master bedroom towel bar re-installed, after it was removed to fix the shower wall not being plum issue. Many imperfections in the plastering on corners and trimming that did not show until we got the entire house interior painted. Many electrical outlet and switch cover plates are not square/parallel with the follow (they look crooked to the naked eye). Lawn is full of clumps of some wild grass that should be pulled by the landscapers since it is their responsibility to take care of the lawn. Some floor molding is separating from the wall and showing a large crack/space. Caulking would make it look better but nailing it properly would fix it correctly. ... More

Pulte (Del Web) is our 4th new builder in California, All 4 were “production” / “track” homes. Of the 4, Pulte falls short, with the buying experience, the construction and its customer service.

I was promised alot when I bought this home in the area of "White glove" service. I never got anything close to that. Although the positive is I confident I have a very well built home, I was treating more like I was lucky to have it rather than Del Webb was lucky to have me buy it. My construction manager only called me once, and I am 3 months in and have yet to have anyone get back to me for 30 day inspection.

It seems Pulti home was rushing to hand over the house and finished their work with many issues. It's really a nightmare now to get hold of them and resolved the issues.

Very anxious to sell property but have been over selling and unable to address issues in a timely manner. Feel they are using many unqualified people for labor. House was dirty at closing.

They are not flexible, and so far, do not follow through on making things right.

Not very responsive to providing information about operation of systems in the home. Did not provide all paperwork at closing, had to get some of it from neighbors

I think that the builder can do better.

Customer service is lacking in too many operational areas. Who is im charge, supervising operations??

I would like to start off by saying the sales team is Awesome! I watched my home build from day one to closing witched took almost 16 months. From the start I was disappointed with the quality if wood used to frame the home. Numerus twisted, cracked, and warped studs. The concreate driveway had to be redone and is now worse than the original. The most disappointing part of the construction is the finishing work of the home. There are too many detailed issues inside the home to list here. The subcontractors have hired less than competent/unskilled personnel to completed even the simplest work correctly the first time or second time. I feel Pulte field superintendents want the homes to be the best as possible but are stretched too thin with too many homes to complete along with the poor work of subcontractors are causing the lack of consistent quality. I have been in my home just over 2 months and have submitted multiple warranty tickets in the Pulte system and have yet to any of the repairs completed. Most of the tickets submitted are issues that should have been done prior to closing. If I had to do this again, I would not have purchased a new Pulte home. I am here now and will enjoy the Sun City community!! ... More

Kitchen cabinets, Kitchen quartz, floors, tile in bathrooms beautiful. Paint and trim finishes terrible. I'm sure we will need to repaint the entire house. Fingers crossed they repair our wood finishes, baseboards, crown, etc.

We have had issues with various items in home and we get no responses to emails and no action taken to correct issues. Terrible customer service

Kenny and Andrew are excellent and know what they are doing . Unfortunately their communication is below standards . Every step of the way the wrong materials were used and had to be done over . Wrong counters , sinks , backsplash , toilet .

Mediocre construction and responsiveness overall.

very poor repair service wont return calls

Lots of surprise cost that are NOT included and NOT disclosed until you are in home. Once you close you will never hear from anyone. Warranty issues left for months...still waiting! Wrong info and no one will take responsibility. Original Sales Gal was great and then moved.....

Quality control definitely needs to be improved. I became the defacto project manager inspecting the house and identifying all of the issues needed to be corrected. I closed on the house even though the refrigerator needed to be replaced, the sink was defective, and the rear lawn was partially dead. Multiple instances of paint were left all over the floor (that were addressed prior to close). However, the kitchen shelves were not cleaned nor were the top of the windows. After previously building four homes, it was obvious to me that the entire construction staff rushes to get the job done without proper time, oversight and attention to quality. ... More

This is our 2nd Pulte home in Del Webb. The 1st one closed 11/20. This one code 5/22. Quality has declined significantly! We have almost 100 items on our punch list. 2 months after closing there are still over 50 open items. Also, Pulte title people were extremely difficult to deal with!

I feel this is a quality home but they closed too early there were a lot of things not finished or not cleaned properly

I love my home don't get me wrong. The quality of workmanship is gone. I've been here for 2 months & my cabinets have fallen apart. The concrete front porch is cracked so badly that it needed to replaced before I moved in. Filling the broken chunks of concrete makes both the front porch & back patio look cheap & worn out. For how much this house cost, everything should have been perfect. I can't believe some things passed their inspection because they didn't pass mine--like crooked window trim, missing paint or paint where it shouldn't be (like on windows). Also what's shown in the model is not what you get. The models need to be updated to reflect included product availability. ... More

After our purchase and final walk through we found some issues we didn't see during the final walk through. Our bad, I admit. But when they are clearly the result of poor workmanship/installation/attention to detail, they should still be corrected. All we got was "you should of noticed it during your walk through"
