Del Webb Reviews

Pretty much a very frustrating experience. Poor workmanship and very poor response at area t number of repairs. I would not recommend this builder to anyone.

I have a number of outstanding repairs and incomplete or sub par workmanship items that must be addressed before I can begin to think about rating my new home!! The responsiveness of your people is seriously lacking. The past month I have not heard from or had ANY workmen here to complete or correct anything. Once I settled on my house I was told by my neighbor "Good Luck" on getting anything done.

Had 4 different building managers. 2 didn’t give weekly updates. Lack of supervision of subcontractors resulted in poor workmanship requiring redoing of work resulting in delays. Five weeks after closing home remains incomplete. I do like the lifestyle and neighborhood!

I stand by my first review sorry you guys don't like it when someone speaks the truth. One month in and our list of issues still have not been address no call and no show.

Shoddy workmanship/craftsmanship, poor quality materials, not responsive, constantly missing promised deadlines, felt bullied into closing before house was complete, then ghosted after closing. Felt lied to. Still not completed satisfactorily. Sales person only one I would rate above 1 star at this point. We’ll see if customer care comes thru and makes up for any of this. People 55 and over should not have to go thru this kind of stress at this point in their lives. Terrible experience…one I would never go thru again.

No attention to detail. Poor customer service, poor communication.

Poor guidance. They did not fulfill their promise. Not trustworthy.

The ADA issues, which I at all times of the build informed both sales and construction manager, were not addressed. After signing closing documents I had to hire a private State of Texas inspector. He found 45 pages which included photos of deficiencies of the home. Most have been subsequently been addresses but the ADA issues has not. I did at all times during the build formed both the sales person as well as construction manager that I had to have a no barrier entry into my home. This is a senior community and I believe Pulte should have addressed the problem.

Walking through the models prior to build is a great sell. Nice homes, beautiful grounds. In reality however, the the actual build & process was far below what I presume to be industry standards. There is a severe lack of communication which may be due to an over-load of absurd quality issues and not enough field supervision to handle the multitude of speed-builds by hundreds of non-qualified crews ongoing throughout a day.

Just don't ever use them

Move in 11/19/21. Nevada water notified me on a progressive leak 35,000 gl on my property. Notified the builder thru Las Vegas Warranty, Rick Crain field supervisor told me its out of their hands due to meter xfered to NV Water already. I was out on what to do next. Kept informing the builder up until I got hold of the Clark County District Supervisor. On the day of 12/03/21 finally Mr. Crain acted upon and told me to stop sending e-mails. I was furious. My water bill a big question on how to bill the builder. This is chaos! Up to now the lists continues on major discrepancies.

The delays in construction were excusable given the pandemic. The quality of construction is poor to awful. The service to fix problems is non existent. During the final inspection several problems were identified that are impossible to get fixed. The paint used in the house is of poor quality and the paint job is appalling. All upgrades make this new house livable but not worth the added cost. I would never recommend Del Webb construction to anyone.

We paid close to $500K for this home. We purchased higher grade cabinets only to find them installed with damages. We have holes and damaged sheetrock masked by molding. We have been in the house less that 2 months. Already we have stress cracks in our walls; tile is cracking in the master bath; and caulking is pulling away in the shower. There is excess paint and caulking on almost every trim around doors and windows. Doors and trim were painted without first removing dust. Trim, in some cases, is not square with the walls and there are gouges in much of the trim. Outside siding was installed either incorrectly or damaged. There was a lack of quality control in almost every aspect of construction. Several times, we had to have things redone because the workers did not follow blueprints. Overall, a shoddy operation. We expected more from Pulte. We have photos of all of this to document what Pulte calls "Quality Construction". ... More

I have built other homes with other builders in the past. This has been a terrible experience. Lack of communication. Lack of follow through. Empty promises. Could not keep to schedule. Long list of punch list items still not addressed and we closed on our new home 5 weeks ago. I do not recommend Pulte. Find another builder!

The workman did not seem to know or care about the job they were doing and materials for the most part seem inferior. The foreman did what he could considering the workman, materials, and how many homes he was overseeing.

A very poor customer experience during and after the build process. I have advised several friends of mine who were considering buying here not to due to the issues.

The salesperson, Travis, was dishonest with me. The house is beautiful, but the quality of workmanship and finish work are disgusting. I been in my house for two months and still am looking at much blue tape. Quality of drywall work and the condition of woodwork and doors are very sub par. Patrick, my representative, I believe , is trying to get things fixed but there is a long way to go.

For other potential home buyers, I say "stay away." You will encounter very bad workmanships (if you want to call it that) and complete lack of responsiveness. Before we moved in, we got to meet our neighbors and they all had complains about the terrible workmanship both inside and outside the houses. we were rushed to close despite a long list of punch list items which, to this day, have not been completed. Some were completed only to create other problems by the workers. Pulte has no quality control over the workers and depend on the contractors to monitor their own work. The supervisors are so overloaded with work that there is minimal, if any, quality checks. Here are SOME of the items that we are still dealing with: . Bad grading of back and side yards which allows rain water to accumulate at the house foundation. . Instead of providing good fill material for the yard and flower beds, the contractor used clay soil which is worthless for planting anything. . The drive way has cavities underneath with no fill. It is just a matter of time for the concrete to break and collapse. . Tiles in the house are set incorrectly and are not level with each other. Wife almost cut her foot from one of the tiles that stood up from the rest. . Paint on garage walls are peeling and flacking, Looks like they did not prime the walls first. . The water heater cover is set incorrectly. . Kitchen backsplash tiles popped out. still waiting for repair . Found the air handler in attic to have missing caps at the condensate line, letting cool air to exhaust into attic. Made a run to Lowes to buy caps. . The few shrubs provided were of the type that some will have extensive roots which are going to be a problem to the house foundation. Need to be replaced. . The paint job in many locations looks like could have been done better by our 12 year old granddaughter. Pulte used inexperienced contractors. . Used cheap light fixtures in all the bathroom. We are planning to replace all of them. The type used can be found in cheap hotels. . Many electrical switches are installed too for from the room/closet/laundry entrances. In the dark, you have to hunt for them. . We had infestation of army worms and had to call several times to front office before we got a contractor to treat outside areas. . We are planning to get inspector(s) to check the structural integrity of the house. We are investigating what state agencies to contact for advice and support. we have been in this house for only one month and we are constantly finding problems. This is in addition to the long list of items we uncovered during the walkthrough which took place 2 days before closing. We were fortunate, in a way, that a new supervisor took over just before the house was "completed". He tried his best to rectify some of the problems that he inherited. GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE NEW HOME OWNERS WHO ARE PLANNING TO MOVE HERE. ... More

This home has low quality of workmanship with many of the finishing details poorly done. We have had to have them come back to redo and repair many items that should of be done correctly in the first place. For a home that cost a half million dollars I would have expected much better quality and attention to details.

I was not happy with the way the my house was done. Painting was sloppy both on the inside and outside. Light fixtures were poorly done. Bathrooms walls are uneven and the fan sounds like a truck when turned on. On a windy day, the kitchen vent makes a flapping sound. Calls made were usually just lip service with no response to fix the problems

Don’t trust anything they tell you and check the process of building as often as possible. Their subcontractors are lackadaisical and exhibit very poor workmanship and concern about your new home. Quality is substandard for the prices you pay.

Horrible communication with the field manager. Never responds in a timely matter or not at all. Workmanship is poor. I've called customer service several times and still nothing gets resolved.

I have nothing good to say about Pulte homes. I paid almost half a million for my house and have been very disappointed in the quality of work. Nicks in laminate flooring, screw holes in the garage where they put up the garage door wrong but neglected to fix the holes. Sloppy finish work the caulking is bad throughout the whole house. The microwave was not installed correctly, the kitchen range is crooked and don’t even get me started on the staircase railing. When the come to fix something the usually make it worse. I have talked to home owners in Carolina Orchards and they to have had similar problems and some had worse. All Pulte is interested in is getting their money then slapping up a poorly built house. If someone asks me I would tell them (DO NOT BUY A PULTE BUILT HOME THEY PROMISE THE MOON AND YOU GET A VERY SLOPPILY BUILT HOME FOR YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ... More

Many people buy here for the Sun City name and life style. Del Webb is stamping out homes and only concerned in profit. The finish work is extremely poor. Ironically, the options we paid for were among the worst! The construction supervisor is in a bad spot as they can't hire or fire workers that don't have a clue to what they are doing. I can't even begin to state all of the problems. We quickly refused to let ANYONE of them inside our home to "fix' or 'go over' anything. Our sales person was misleading and uninformed. The mistakes caused the Title Co. and Mortgage people a lot of grief. We were not sure of our numbers on closing day. We lived out of state and feel we were taken advantage of from sales, construction, and Del Webb. ... More

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