Del Webb Reviews

The home experience was great.

This is our third new home build. This builder exceeded our expectations. We felt more involved in the process and admire the quality of the build.

The sales agent for Del Webb, Michael, answer all of our questions and concerns. Elliot and Damon, overseeing the construction of our home were excellent. They kept us updated on every aspect of the project and we were very happy with our home.

I bought a yard of dead sod at closing. I was reassured the sod would be replaced by Pulte Hones. This has not happened and is unacceptable.

Purchasing my home with a great experience. My sales person Catherine was wonderful to deal with and helped me through every step of the way. My builder manager, Nathan was absolutely phenomenal and responded to every need I had.

All of our neighbors have had the same issues as us, so it appears that Pulte builds homes using the cheapest methods "the home building code" will allow. In example, we have a walkout rambler with an unfinished basement. You can feel the counter bounce when some walks across the floor. Everyone is having this same issue but Pulte will just tell you they did everything to code. If you bring in an engineer, they will tell you that you will need to consider strongbacks. We built a rambler previous to this about 20 years ago with an unfinished basement and NEVER had this issue. All Pulte cares about is quickly banging out tons of homes, operating like an assembly line. They're like a big corporate machine. We've already spent a ton of money on this house and will now spend more to fix this issue on our own. ... More

Our buying experience was wonderful with Dorothy. She listened to what we wanted and answered all our questions. The quality of workmanship was not great. Many problems - paint splatter on floor, cracked and chipped tub, crack in master mirror, cold water supply line for washer had cracked unit, walls were not straight, trim work was sub-par - looked like a dog chewed off the ends of the quarter rounds,. This is what we walked into at our Celebration walk through. I had to scrub paint off my floor and out of my kitchen sink. There was no quality control by our project manager Joey. Very disappointed. Potential buyers need to be present when building the house. Our Customer Care rep Brandon was very responsive and fixed many of our issues. I am still not satisfied with the tub repair - it looks like its been repaired, and the trim work is still terrible. I will ask these items to be replaced at the 11 month insprection. ... More

Had many delays was scheduled to close 2-2024 they couldn’t get issue resolved closed on 4-4-24 and still have issues that has to get done

The people employed by Del Webb are great and they really try their best. Unfortunately they can only do so much to make up the below acceptable workmanship of the sub-contractors. The people are unskilled and it seems like they do not care at all about the quality of their work.

I was extremely impressed with my Construction Manager, Tomas. He was very professional, trustworthy, responsive, and thorough while going through the Pre-Drywall and Final Inspection.

The quality of a Pulte home is higher than other Florida homebuilders. Even though my home wasn't "perfect" on move-in, the quick responsiveness of both my construction manager, Ben, and the warranty representative, Jodi, has been amazing. I'm loving it here at Del Webb!

We had an independent house inspector do the inspection before the sheetrock got installed and the final inspection. It was the best insurance we ever purchased. His inspections showed that the quality of construction was good and he tagged everything that needed to be repaired prior to closing. We had three different construction PM's during the building process. All of them seemed competent and easy to work with. Our inspector will also do the 1 year warranty walkthrough when it comes time for that.

The Welcome Center was very helpful.

A lot of things like closet shelving and shower heads that I consider cheap. Also backyard is totally uneven and pitted and danger to walk on.

Experience has been relatively painless. Happy with landscaping. Home seems well built.

we well give review when every thing done driveway ,thankd no no patio done yet no sprikle system done no landscaping or have no idea when they well done new idea what the plan is

location of lot. Lawn people were awesome.

Very satisfied with our new home. Working with the Bayview staff was pleasant.

We found everyone we dealt with to be so nice and accommodating.

several contractor no shows for follow-up work

We came to Sun City Peachtree and immediately knew this is where we wanted to live. We worked through the detailed processes with sales and most everything went as planned. The few hiccups were easily and quickly rectified. Our build team were also excellent and easy to work with. Phil, our Del Web Construction Manager was beyond excellent. He stayed in continuous contact with us on everything. We are in and almost settled and so excited with the choices we made.

When we first signed the Contract, we were very excited about this new-built Home, While the buying experience was good, when we moved in, we found that Pulte had cut corners. Investing a little into simple, cosmetic features would go a long way. I am hoping that the core construction is good because that will stay with us for a long time. We liked the electrical design of the switches, etc. -- very well thought-through. While other builders like K Hov, and Toll Brothers use local subcontractors, overall, I think that the Construction Manager was not on top of the overall quality. The responsiveness of the post-close customer service of warrantied items could be better. ... More

We purchased the higher end model in the community, the Pinnacle Collection Sonoma Cove. We upgraded to the gourmet kitchen, the luxury master bath, an upgraded elevation, etc. Our surprises started at the design center, where it seemed anything you might expect in this price range, were "options." Simple things like bath hardware, window sills, tile selections, flooring selections... nearly anything above Simple builder grade, as an additional charge "option." One example, the bath hardware was a $610 option, but didn't include more than 1 towel bar in the "luxury bath," and none in the guest bath, which we weren't told at design. To add to the insult, the items installed were cheap plastic that all told might sell for less than $60 at Home Depot, and we were charged 10 times that amount. Then two days following move in we learned that the drain lines from our master bath were damaged in two places, both under the slab and in the front yard. While the team was responsive we still had to deal with not being able to use our master bath for about a week. The repairs to the slab area are not correct and will need to be redone, and I am still waiting for sod replacement. As we finish setting up we're finding scratches on glass panes in our office door, poor grouting, poor painting workmanship on trim and ceiling, and still finding things out. To top it all off, a big deal was made about the Nest thermostat and Doorbell, though I've yet to have s representative help to set either up other than basic instruction from the construction supervisor who has been responsive Essentially, my expectations of quality in a Del Webb home have not been realized, and my worst fears of lack thereof in a Pulte Home have been, giving me memories of my first new home in 1983 Katy TX, where I purchased my only Pulte home and it was a disaster. We are however happy with the neighborhood and our homes layout, but not happy with the overall purchase experience and quality. ... More

We were so excited at the beginning of our journey when we discovered the future community of Del Webb Oasis a boutique community of 422 Homes in a 55 plus active adult community. We waited for phase 3. The beginning of the buying process was as expected for new construction. I was a bit shocked of how the price of the house is marketed at one starting price but that doesn't include the premium you'll pay for the lot. We were still hopeful that the location and expected quality of the house construction would be worth it to spend over a million for our new home. We loved the floorplan we chose and the options to expand the garage and gathering room. We found some of the design options very limiting but we worked around them. We felt good about our choices within the constraints. In hind site and for any future buyer limit your upgrades. I say this because you are just wasting your money and increasing the cost of your home that your property taxes will be based on. These are my regrets because of how bad the workmanship, quality and materials. Expect your new home to be dirty from the trades. I found grout everywhere it shouldn't be, paint everywhere especially on the new floors and layers of dust everywhere. Issues we pointed out on our pre drywall inspection were ignored and these issues not being resolved created more problems. The concept of do it right the first time is not the Pulte process. It is build the house as fast as you can, compromise on quality and give no consideration to workmanship. We saw trades in the dark fixing twisted, crooked framing. Electrical boxes installed crooked that once drywall was applied they are crooked today. I would say the worst is the interior painting. It's either oversprayed or not painted enough. You can tell it was done by an amateur not a professional. Not prepped properly, or masked properly. The drywall and then orange peel textured walls have no consistency. The walls are crooked and it's most obvious where the walls and ceilings meet. The wood door frames were not cut properly. The upgraded 8ft.doors were not even painted. The poor quality was covered up by any means especially on the outside stucco. Do not opt for the outside kitchen ours was and is a disaster. The only promising element or so I thought was our kitchen. The day after we closed escrow, we noticed water coming up from underneath the flooring. We had a water leak from a careless installation of the dishwasher. Because a hose was not tighten properly a slow drip of water that went unnoticed for weeks ruined our kitchen lower cabinets. The base of the cabinets wicked the water and created mold. This has been a complete nightmare. This is my third new construction home. Some touch up sure, is to be expected but not on the scale of this experience. So disappointed in Pulte Homes. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't. Worst experience of my life! ... More

My new home buying experience with Pulte was a positive experience. They met my expectations. From the sales representative to the project manager all staff were pleasant and most helpful in helping me navigate the process.
