Del Webb Reviews in Austin, TX

The sales and design agents were outstanding. However, the home project manager was severely lacking in basic communication and follow-up. Timelines were promised and missed at every step. Punch list items were not completed on time or as promised. The community is outstanding, but the home building phase is poor.

Building my new home was not the experience i had hoped it would be. Supply chain issues and delays we plentiful. My home was completed about 4 months past the initial completion date. AND the sub-contractors and trades were sub par. The amount of items that needed to be redone and that are still not corrected 2 months after my closing are way more than anybody should have. Since its only been two months since I closed, i cannot speak to the long-term quality of the home build

Sun city is great location but feel the house is overpriced, fit and finish (not so good) full brick- great, green space in back yard good but $$$

Huge disappointment with construction and delivery. Still open items from the initial walk through over 2 months ago. Home was embarrassingly filthy at delivery. Sales was spectacular but construction sucks!!!!

Pulte failed on quality and craftsmanship.

We had 3 different field managers during the process and the lack of communication and follow through was disappointing and ridiculous. It took 13 months to complete our home and the final 8 weeks of the process went well with the newlya assigned manager. My entire home was floored with the incorrect flooring and I actually brought that issue to the field managers attention! He had no idea the floors were wrong but claimed he was at the home daily. I only received information or got questions answered if I reached out to them. I did get the VP involved during the final stages due to the fact that my home sat stagnant for 6 weeks. The cabinets in the kitchen are a level 5 upgrade but have so many issues such as nail holes, light rail installed crooked, and blemishes - they look so cheap for an Echelon Series home. Tile is cut so badly in master bathroom - clear caulk doesn't hide the imperfections. ... More

Communication between buyer and builder nonexistent.

We were excited to purchase our home in Sun City we love it here, but all the problems we had with the quality of workmanship and having them having to come out and correct them takes a lot of time away from other things we could be doing here. I wish the quality control people would’ve spent more time inspecting the homes. Make sure you look very closely at everything.

Make sure you check everything and have then walk through each item with you,

This is a major investment I expect to receive great service all the way and I am not happy with Pulte

Don't release the home to be nice.Make them repair,finish,your home the way you want it.

Our salesperson Sarah was great. She has been very helpful. Wish I could say that about the construction process. We signed contract Feb. 1 and closed Dec. 16. The house was not ready to close. Lots of issues and the paint and texture job was terrible. Still trying to get everything taken care of two months later. Jesse in Warranty has been very helpful but lots to do.

Can’t believe anything said

Be aware that the labor used to build the home are less than skilled. Most likely they were picked up at Home Depot for the day. Rugs laid wrong, poor grouting, kitchen cabinets damaged, painting was sloppy, all over windows and driveway when we closed on the house. I have previously purchased 19 new homes. This was the worst.

Every house I see in Sun City has a rain sensor with a bracket on their gutter. When I looked for mine it is sitting in my gutter. So I am thinking why would someone just put my rain sensor in my gutter instead of using a bracket like everyone else? It did not fall there someone had to do that instead of doing it right. That is my reason for the low rating.

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 .

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.

Make sure you inspect construction through the stages of build where possible.

The experience was less than positive due to lack of information on what to expect, being 1500 miles away and finding out things we should have been made aware of during the purchase AFTER we moved in.

Pulte was very responsive to the quality related issues encountered. We saw shortcuts that led to some of the quality issues.

Disappointed in the quality of the workmanship compared to other Pulte homes. Cracked concrete, inside doors that are not leveled / can't be closed and which were fixed by bending door hinges. Kitchen cabinets that needed touching up. Door seals that needed to be replaced since they were short of the door width. Misaligned garage door, Paint droplets on tile floor. We had 4 windows glass panes replaced. Not sure whether the work was rushed to meet closing date.

The floor plan works well for me. The finishes are problematic. Drywall, texture, molding are all sloppy. Since moving in spent time cleaning up paint splatter off of floor, glue off of countertops. Will end up sanding down repainting areas of baseboards. Big issue such as frameless shower door that doesn’t close is being addressed quickly after working with warranty office.

we were out of state for the entire building process. i would not consider ever doing that again with this builder.

It took 11 months to get into our house, with four casual emails from our sales person extending our timeline out another 2 months. Being desperate to move in we closed despite numerous items that still needed to be addressed. We've not had responses back from anyone since.

Cuts on trim, drywall and framing not done with precision leaving gaps that should not have been present. The garage was not cleaned despite repeated requests to remove globs of concrete, drywall mud, sawdust and drywall dust. I finally cleaned it myself. Texturing and painting were done haphazardly with blank areas and paint runs.the sprinkler system was not working correctly and required multiple calls to get corrected. Someone cleaned a paint brush in the sink leaving the sink stained. Calls to quality personal and project manager would go unanswered requiring multiple calls or calls to Tim D.,the dependable sales rep, to get them going. Areas requiring paint touch-up and additional caulking are still in need a month and a half after closing. The areas are marked with blue tape. It is an embarrassment to have guests see all the tape. The communication between supervisors and workers seems to be sorely lacking. It appears to me that there is inadequate supervision and accountability for the workers. Do not sign off on the house until all corrections are made. ... More
