Del Webb Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

While friendly and personable the salesperson (April) cost me a lot of money because she did not explain cabinet configurations when I was choosing double vs single oven, and range hood. So I ended up with a very plain cabinet configuration I never would have chosen had I known. It was only AFTER I complained my cabinets didn't look like the model home, that she sent me sketches of the 4 different configurations and told me the fact I didn't choose double ovens meant I got something completely different. This was NOT ok!!! Likewise I chose to purchase the refrigerator offered since she told me it was a counter depth, but was NOT! It stuck way out into my kitchen and looked terrible so I bought a new frig. Now I"m stuck with a second frig I need to try to sell. While my construction manager was a super nice guy he was not good/consistent with communication. He frequently did not answer emails or calls and it became very frustrating. If I happened to run into him in person, he was quite nice and informative but that was hit and miss. Pulte Mortgage was TERRIBLE. I had the worst mortgage experience of my life! Then, I had items not complete before closing so the warranty manager followed up. And Troy was wonderful! He was responsive, friendly and on task! 2 weeks after move-in I had a major plumbing back up that took 4 visits from the plumber to resolve. Turned out it was construction debris. Troy the warranty was hands on at my house to work with the plumbers to get the issue resolved. He was great! As I am getting more familiar with my house I notice a lot of places where the quality could have been much better (trim joints not well done, drywall details, finish details, etc) which is a bit disappointing. Additionally there are several bad home design issues, such as the refrigerator doors will not fully open as they hit the walls on either side, especially the angled wall on one side. To sum it up, the home architectural plans, the communication in general and the build quality has lots of room for improvement! ... More

This is our 7th home. Smallest and most expensive. Feel deserted after move in.

Our experience was not as pleasant as we wished. Our first construction manger was not very responsive to our concerns. How ever Nate was our construction manger at the end was great and helped us out. Our sales person was very short to us about our concerns and and basically dropped us at end. Pulte Del Webb needs to have more quality checks for what people are speny

The entire process of building the home from initial purchase to final move-in was easy. The quality of the home and materials is poor and the skilled workers were not all that good (sheet rocking, molding and painting were terrible). The team was good but they also have to deal with poor craftsmanship. Tim was responsive and efficient in addressing our issues. For future home buyers, the quality is not worth the cost. Also, don't rely on the models shown as designs and options change over time

Very disappointed in the overall experience. Poor workmanship, lack of communication and many lingering punch-list items.

There were many things wrong with the house as they pushed to get an early closing. Bathroom window, cabinets needed replacing, floors fixed, went without electricity in 2 front bedrooms for 3 weeks. Only 1/2 of flashing done above garage, etc. As of today, still haven’t gotten a cabinet panel replaced or the rain gutters re-pitched. I’ve seen better quality in a motor home. It really left us with a bad taste for Pulte custom homes.

The quality of the workmanship, especially the finish-work subcontractors, is below even track home quality. Lack off attention to detail and even basic trade skills is evident by all of the major trades. Not only did Pulte insist on our closing before the house was completed: it has not fulfilled its reassurances and promises to take care of outstanding issues. We are seven weeks past closing and none of the key issues have been addressed. We lack a working shower door. The stairs which has both structural, cosmetic and finish issues was made worse by the unskilled laborers sent to “fix” things. Pulte is selling a wonderful home and delivering a weak imitation. It has clearly hired the lowest bidders and not the lowest responsible trades. It’s project managers are likely overworked, stretched thin and obviously lack clout. ... More

Not a good value at these prices.

Ok sad ,disappointed paint ugly, still trying to clean pain up , trying to get things fix have more

The community and people are wonderful. However, everything from picking out your first options to settlement was and still is stressful. The options are so many and not very well explained. The walk through before closing was postponed for four days because house was not professional cleaned, paint on new floors and carpet, and many other things. I’ve been here six weeks and still have things not done and now need to use a portal. Absolutely no one checking contractors work.

They had a list of items to be fixed. Apparently customer service agent quit and list must have been lost. New agent assigned to take over. I was told to add to list with filling out a ticket. I wasted my time filling out 3 new tickets of simple things to fix (not realizing original things were never included). I’ve been here almost 2months and never heard from anyone to fix anything. But I have received a communication that I can call someone about warranty services. Included in this was websites of about everything that was not included -basically so don’t bother to call.

While I know there have been "supply chain issues," what was initially an exciting event turned into a very disappointing experience.

These homes are put out so quickly that not even the paint jobs are finished before closing. There are so many areas that need to be addressed it's quite infuriating for the amount of money I spent to own this home. There is not one home in this development that was move in ready without a list of issues..They just spit them out and you are waiting and hoping for a reply to address the problems.

Great design & community amenities. Poor quality painting with ultra cheap paint ( been here two months and all trim is still sticky, cheap moldings full of small and large dents, many dents and damaged areas of drywall, corner joints of base and crown molding coated with globs of caulk instead of carpenters putty. Production house built by poor craftsman with very little attention to detail or pride in workmanship. Hard to believe a public company would present this poor of a product.

too much money but someone is supposed to come 'lol'

When we closed on our house they hadn’t even completed painting the exterior. Our patio and lanai where pitched so when it rained, water was settling and pooling near our foundation. The concrete had to be replaced. Some of my floor boards had water damage, all of my kitchen cabinets are defective, the glass in my shower is defective and the workmanship of the granite installer was unacceptable. It is 6 weeks later and the only thing addressed so far is the concrete, which they had to take up and redo a second time. There is damage to my fence,and new sod has to be laid. They have scheduled appts to fix the other things but who knows if they’ll show up? They only show up about 50 percent of the time and leave you waiting all day for them. I love the layout of my house but it certainly is not of the quality I would expect from pulte. ... More

Don't care about quality. Bad craftsmanship it's a shame

Very disappointed with the response of Builder and quality of work moved in month and 1/2 ago and still waiting on items to be fixed that were noticed before closing and we were told would be fixed immediately. Very poor work and service for the money. No contact with anyone on sales staff after closing poor customer service.

I had a great construction manager. No issues there. Pulte Mortgage is horrible. I wish I would have not let the builder incentives persuade me. I would have still bought, but used another lender. The stress that they put my family through was not worth the money for builder incentives. We shall see how well they respond to issues because I have some open work orders. I don’t think that their homes are worth the market costs. The amenities at Del Web are great. Pleased with my community

Pulte homes is a production builder that is rigid in the limited homeowner selections. The very best kitchen cabinets they offer at a substantial cost to the homeowner are low level contractor grade product. This strategy goes thru out the selection process to all homeowner choices. If your history is with custom or semi custom builders prepare to be disappointed.

DelWebb homes are way overpriced. And then after the base price you are nickeled and dimed throughout the whole design experience. You have to go for the upgrades because the "what's included" choices are so bad. The other problem I have is the unwillingness to negotiate anything! Throw the buyer a bone and let them feel good about the exorbitant price they are paying for their new home. I do have to say that the punch list after move in was minimal but 2 months later the items have not been fixed yet. The sales person and design consultant have both been fired so that could explain my bad experience. I hope the new staff is better. One note of caution, DelWebb's lower priced homes in the Scenic Series although very nice, the flex room and 2nd bedroom are extremely small. I was unable to fit a queen size bedroom set in the space. I am currently looking into the Distinctive Series for the larger rooms but the prices are crazy high and again, even as a current homeowner in DelWebb, there is no negotiating nor consideration. i am only staying in this development for the location and the amenities. I wish I had better things to say. ... More

Low Quality and low quality company management.

Del Webb talks a lot of hot air about warranty and prompt repairs but doesn't deliver. Sent list of items to repair a week ago. One week later nothing done. No calls. Number of inside issues to be resolved. Dishwasher not even attached to cabinet. Front brick fell out of side of house. Building trades set up large speaker and blast Spanish music. Building trades sanding concrete for 2 days sending concrete dust everywhere..

A lot of probably moved in here July 5 , Communication problem with the work that supposed to be done. at my walk through and a lot of things weren’t done they told me it would be done right away after two months nothing is done. a lot of texting emails A lot of talk no action they told me a Gentlemen be in touch with the five working days were already past eight and there’s been no conversation yet. when is the work going to be done?????? I feel like company doesn’t really care but they took my money with no problem I pay cash, so if you guys really care about my review have somebody call me one of the bosses and I could tell them what you’re doing wrong down here they don’t care about the people. Honestly I think the surveys not gonna do anything anyway have a real boss give me a call so we can talk about this can imagine I have a thermostat for my hot water heater so my water is not hot the shower they knew this at the time but nobody told me , have a real boss give me a call so we can resolve , maybe they can set up a meeting I have all the homeowners meet you guys and tell you what’s going on.good luck to me ...
