Del Webb Reviews

Spent all morning for no show repairs or someone else’s fault? Multiple calls to schedule repairs then not a single issue resolved. Pics of repairs not even my house as I submitted. Sent wrong service people, no show on others. Stucco although scheduled won’t repair for a year.

Pick this builder base on my son recommendation of CEO. Second reason Disney proximity. But construction is shoddy with multiple issues wrong with dwelling. Still waiting on multiple repairs to be done. They’re backlog due to other homes needing repair so I’ve been told by warranty repair. DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!!!!!

Quality of workmanship was subpar. They just wanted to get the home built ASAP and then let the homeowner suffer the consequences of repairs. Very stressful

The Dell Webb resort style living is why we moved to this community. Coming from a high end DR Horton home the experience has been quite different. The walk through was several hours and appliances were run off and known to be working, as opposed to this walk through - being told they work fine when the dishwasher wasn't hooked up and flooded our floor and cabinet when we ran it off the first time. The hood Vent wasn't working either which turned out to be a bad breaker. I understand these things happen. What I'm not happy with is the service team rather than saying " we are sorry Mr and Mrs Schultz we will get it handled" your people choose to take photos under the dishwasher to see if it was removed when we changed the floors out . I explained the tube to the aerator requires a clamp at the connection which your team denied it did though the appliance repair person said yes it needed one. He only had a zip tie with him so I provided the clamp. I am an easy going person the clamp is no big deal I was glad I had it, but don't blame us for items not completed after the walk through. I wish this was the end but your service professional asked to see the rest of the home and continued to take pictures and tell my wife you did new tile on the shower walls your plumbing isn't covered now, your put back splash on the kitchen walls maybe that's why the hood vent isn't working and now your pot filler isn't covered he then asked if we were going to change the thermos stats " because if your do then and heating/ cooling system isn't covered. I thought for a second we were just calling for two items to be fixed and didn't realize we were going to investigated by your service team. My wife and I run a building supply company with four locations a little customer service goes a long way FYI. I could go on about several more items but I believe my point has gotten across. Lastly I'm on the mailing list for several of your South Carolina communities as we want to spend our summers close the the beach and family but I'm not to sure about those now. There is one last item I would like include . We have a mountain bordering our back yard and during flash floods there is extreme water run off. Dell Webb / Pulte had there contractor install a 2 or 3 course block wall to divide our property from the common area. After completion of the wall the contractor left his scaffolding planks water bottles, Beer Bottles, Energy drink cans and the dirt from the footings which now halt drainage. We asked for this to be cleaned and the drainage to be reworked for water to run as intended, at the walk through which was never done now we are being told its common area and the HOA should clean up after the Block wall contractor. Seems like the contractor should clean up after they completed the wall. ... More

Can you say production homes?!?! They tell you one thing and then do another. The workmanship for the most part is poor. Granted there are a few decent subs, but overall the whole process is bad. The supervisors are no more than Pulte yes people. They tell you what you want to hear, but don’t follow through with what needs to be done. Never again!! Worst decision ever!!

We have had electrical issues. Half the inside of the home the electric went out. The electricians diagnosed the problem. The roof is leaking and shorting out the electric. We have a call into the roofer and they will not come out till Thursday. We discovered the roof leak on Friday. I have a bucket in my kitchen catching the water. Called Pulte warranty and they do not answer their phone. You need to leave a message. When they finally called us back they hung up on us twice. We are not having a great a great experience. I find it unacceptable the roof is leaking and we have to waite at least 6 plus days for the roofer to come out. ... More

Many of the items in the home were not luxury items. Low end appliances. The model showed what you could get but during the sale it was stated everything was already bought. You could not change unless you paid more. After moving in there were many details that needed to be repaired/replaced. One month later still waiting for repairs.

Construction manager was pushy to close, then no follow up on items found during walk through inspection. He made promise that items would be corrected, now he won’t return calls, text messages or emails. It’s been over a month since closing and still not moved in because of issues. We were pleased with house and buying process till after we closed.

My second and last Pulte Home, at least in Florida. Issues from the get go and still while residing in the home. Too many issues to list here. Major concern is level of construction knowledge, laying floor tile in the dark, major flooding due to loose plumbing fittings and on and on.

This is my third home in Sun City and this last home we had build was way below standard . I wish I could show the interior to a top executive from the Pulte Homes ! Believe me it would make him cry to spend $ 500.000.00 for this property .

Love the community, amenities are very nice the people within the community are awesome! People are friendly & very helpful. The quality of the houses are not so great! They put up so many at one time that they are sacrificing the quality as they build each house and cut corners. Very expensive for the quality.

Home is poorly built. Appears to have used particle board for door frames/molding. Paint job is sloppy and looks like one coat. Bought premium lot with pond and supposedly waterfall which has not worked in over 2 months and no one seems to know why it’s not working!! Have received high energy/gas and electric bills and have only slept in house one night, never used stove and leave temperature on 68 degrees at all times- where is the energy efficiency??

We felt rushed thru walk thru, we are having to completely redo baseboards as they did not wipe down before painting!! We invested in nicer taller baseboards with pulte, they were completely trashed!! The glass doors going into office are completely scratched on both doors, glass completely scratched!! Overall the finishing work is very poor! We mentioned to CM and the person who come in only made them worst! The outdoor light doesn’t work! After you do walk thru, they ignore you!! We’ve made several calls to number given and they don’t return your calls! Before we bought here we heard horror stories l, we just thought they were problem people, we now know not true! Very unhappy!!! ... More

to many delays in process of closing

We were promised a quality home "the Del Webb difference" and we did not get it. The bones of the house are hopefully quality but the finished product was crap. We had to touch up every wall, many cabinet faces need replacement, no screens on our windows for many months and still waiting. Every appliance has needed repair or replace and some not done yet. there has not been a single area where we didn't need some kind of repair. The problem is that pult has hired the worst possible trades to do the work. They either don't care or don''t know how to do the work conscientiously and have NO OVERSIGHT. Many in our new development will even allow they back in our homes because they either do a lousy job or they mess something else up while doing work. I have heard the word "class action lawsuit" from multiple people. I would not buy here again if I could go back in time. I will say that the consturction manager, our sales guy and the construction supervisor are great people...but pulte really dropped the ball in this development hiring sub-standard folks to do the work and not giving us the "quality" we were promised. I feel they owe us a rebate! ... More

The purchasing and planning was very good, Lisa, our sales person was very helpful and responded to any questions we had in a very timely manner. Our design team was also great and helpful with our decision making and putting our home together. The building on the other hand was very frustrating. Our home sat very long periods of time with nothing being done only to have many issues upon completion that we have addressed ourselves. We have been in our home now for a little more than a month and are still waiting on cabinet doors and drawers that were talked about at the final walk thru. Workmanship was the absolute worst, too many things to mention. ... More

Be prepared. Keep up with everything as you go. Hire external inspector. There is no checking by builder. Remember they are not a custom builder and the workmanship reflects that fact.

Really enjoyed our sales person. She was responsive and educated on the homes and neighborhood. Was extremely disappointed in the final product on so many levels - too many to write out here. Main issues - craftsmanship just so shoddy I would be embarrassed to present this to an owner as clean and new.

Way too many issues with the work that was done. I think the time it takes to get things fixed is apart of their overall plan. Put your life on hold waiting for things to get fixed hoping you will fix them yourself. There seems to be no priority to make things right. Their preferred pool provider is as bad a Pulte homes with excuses for everything. The pool was dug in October and we still just have hole in the ground with plumbing and electrical complete. This is our third Pulte home and has been the worst experience.

Terrible workmanship in the house. Gouges in the molding around windows and doors, paint splatters on the floor, gouges in the flooring, terrible paint job, no pride in workmanship.

Careful about packages changing and not being notified. We now have a stove and two toilets that were down graded by someone? And never told. That is not what we paid for.

Be careful and get involved. Trust but verify. Not all supervisors are the same and some don’t supervise until after something happens. Some talk good, but when it comes to delivery well it is another story. Sales need to listen to the customer.

Of the more than 15 new homes we have built or purchased, this has been the worst experience. There is no pride of workmanship, quality is terrible and response to issues has been poor.

Buyers beware about customer service after closing, I am still waiting for my cracked in owner suit bathroom mirror that need it to be replaced since March 3,2021 till today, May 25 it has been one very frustrated dealing. Many calls with no returned call from them. No Show couple of times and yet no one seems to care about it, you have no recourse and no one helping you to solve it including my field manager ignore my called, the RESPONSIVENESS TO ISSUES is NONE EXISTENCE

I’m disappointed with the house. Happy with the great neighbors. Don’t know if I’d do it again.
