Pulte Homes Reviews in Phoenix Mesa, AZ

This is my third Pulte Home and I the first I was able to choose my options and upgrades on so I thought it would be fun and exciting. Out first Pulte was a quality build and one previous buyers didn’t qualify for so we got a great bargain. The second was a no frills spec home and had a few issues, but Pulte took care of them. This home, the last Pulte I will ever buy, was a nightmare. The quality of materials and workmanship Is horrible and most issues were concealed by each next phase of construction rather than corrected. The trades never cleaned up, leaving rotting food and wrappers and even beer bottles on site daily. Pulte management admits to being held hostage by the trades and said if they complain about the work, the crews just won’t show up. The home was delivered 4 months late and filthy. After 2 days of cleaning, we replaced broken trim, fixed the texture and caulking issues and repainted with quality paint then moved in 13 months after signing our purchase agreement. The only pleasant part of buying this home was the Design Center. Gina was very knowledgeable and helpful and the options were plentiful. ... More

Construction managers are in trustworthy and the warranty department denies everything. No help. We have a half a million in an investment and was sold a Home that was incomplete with no working heater. Granite cracks and damaged shower and cabinets in the kitchen. We need someone who cares to make this right.

Inappropriate content because it's the truth this overall experience with our new Pulte house being built sucked if that's inappropriate content and take it as you will like I said you got your money that's why we won't expect a email in responseWhy don't you blame it on Covid like everybody else that's what everybody seems like they're doing with the crap that happened with this pulte house

There is no supervision on the job site and the superintendent lies to you and says no its ok that is the way Pulte does there work! Then when the blue tape walk though comes around simple things like doors closing correctly don't then you wait 14 days for someone to come and fix them. the bath tub is so scratched up the worker said he cant do any more> Iam waiting another 14 days for someone to tell me the something I cant take out the scratches

Electrical, plumbing, and flooring issues were supposed to be fixed prior to closing on our home. We were assured everything was completed and ready for us to move in. We are having major electrical problems and plumbing issues since we moved in and they have not been addressed yet. We also have structural issues that have not been addressed. Garage company has yet to fix our garage doors. We closed in the beginning of January and as of March 3rd, nothing has been fixed. We have tried to reach out to our Field Manager and no response. The windows do not open and shut correctly. The home buying process was horrible and Pulte deceived us from the design center and mortgage company. ... More

We purchased our home in April which was supposed to be ready November-January. We we informed in July we would close in September. We did our walk through and noticed several things which we noted and were supposed to be fixed before closing. . We closed and moved in a week later. The house was left a mess. (we were told construction clean) Cabinets were chipped and covered with paint, the workers left chicken bones, nails, bottles and so much debris in our yard and front of house. We have already had a nail in our tire. Our floors which we upgraded were covered with grout which is not even the right color throughout the house and is stained, our windows were covered with dust as well as our screens. Our garage door was damaged, (reported this in August to Pulte), paint was all over tiles, sprayed over insulation that fell onto the baseboard and stuck, and multiple drip stains all over walls, a/c not working properly, thermostats not properly calibrated, (a/c company out 3 times., our lights flicker all the time, rugs have stains, glue and holes in them. We have multiple cracks in the outside of the house and a few areas of the outside with chunks missing off the house. We have had 2 days of different companies out to fix things and they just do the minimum. We paid for a new home and many things in the home like cabinets have been touched up. We have damaged cabinets, damaged floors (tile and carpet) and damaged walls and paint. We have talked to our sales rep, construction supervisor and manager and they just say oh yes I understand. I don't think so because we did not get a new home, we got a rushed botched home with many damaged things and nobody cares, everyone we talk to passes it on to someone new. We are treated awful because we want our home fixed. ... More

Absolutely terrible. After spending 1 night in my house we had our first, but not last, major water issue. I haven't even slept in my house for weeks because of the 2nd major water incident in which you knowingly installed a broken dishwasher which leaked and leaked into my kitchen island causing mold. I have major regrets working with Pulte and wish I had just bought an older house or gone with Taylor Morrison. This experience has been devastating to my wife recovering from surgery, my 3 very young children as well my my dogs, 1 of which is 15 years old in diapers and in his last legs. I work from home so I am unable to to my job or make a living as I work on commission. You've honestly cost me a lot money and personal suffering. Pulte Homes is an awful company and I will be sure to let anyone who wants to know what they can expect when you work with a company like Pulte. Worst of all? There's nothing I can do about it because you're a big company and I am just 1 person. But hey you guys made a few bucks off of us right? All in the name of profits. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I did this to a family but something tells me nobody at Pulte has lost any sleep over us. I know I can't do much I suppose but I will share my experience with as many people as I can so they can avoid making the same mistake we made in building with Pulte. ... More

Working with the Pulte AZ office to get our A/C fixed was very difficult. Then when you complain about what’s wrong they will tell you that you are lying. Unfortunately it was 1 bad apple working for Pulte who ruined it for everyone else working there. I would be happy to give her name if Pulte wants to know.

I had so many issues and multiple attempts to fixed the and every time it makes it worse

Pulte does not fix problems, they hide problems! In my master bathroom I ordered gray grout to match the tile grout in my shower. Instead they installed white grout!! Instead of fixing the problem the correct way, tear out the 100 square feet of tile and install new tile with the correct grout they decided to use a grinder and try to grind out some of the grout. And in places near the wall all they did was put silicone grout on top of the white grout, That was not what I ordered and now the grout is concave above the floor line. Also now I have razor sharp edges on my tile. So now the problem is worse, And they won.t fix it!! Now I have white grout bleeding through the added grout!! Additionally I replaced a toilet and then the water valve started to leak which was a defective part and they won't cover it, they said because I replaced the toilet the water valve that I didn't replace was my responsibility!! The faulty water valve pulte installed, I had to pay $400 to fix Pulte's fault parts. Additionally the linen closet door would not close properly. They said because I painted it, they would not fix it!! Do not buy a home from Pulte! You will regret it! ... More

Very disappointing

We are extremely dissatisfied with Party. There are numerous, five pages of items that were supposed to be fixed prior to move in. There were only a couple things fixed prior to distribution. We have been fixed, we have made schedule changes to be home a few of the items are addressed instead of all, wasting our time. Paint and drywall disgusting completely unacceptable.

I have had several issues with my home. Some have been taken care of and some haven’t due to the incompetence and irresponsibility of the company. Several times I have been told someone would come to fix things and they never came at the scheduled time due to a miscommunication on Pulte’s side and them not ordering the materials they said would. I have emailed the fields manger about another thing that came up. Part of my bathroom cabinet fell and it looks like the wood wasn’t place right and it’s uneven. No response. I’m disgusted. I’m paying a lot of money to a poor quality company.

I absolutely love our new home, but am so not satisfied with the quality of the workmanship. Many items we noticed while our house was being built and brought it to the attention of the superintendent on more than one occasion. Nothing was corrected at that time and the trades continued working. When we did our first walk through these items once again brought to the attention of the superintendent. Still nothing corrected, and then another walk through. By this time the dry wall has been hung, kitchen counters are in and electrical and plumbing are all in and still the same issues have not been corrected. Electrical outlets covered with dry wall, the electrician not able to run the power full circle due to this. While I could overlook somethings, others I could not. Our $12,000 master shower, horrible workmanship and 6 corrections later we are still not able to shower in our master shower. Let's just say they would save money if they would do things right the first time or at the lease fix things right away rather than waiting until completion when they have to rip things apart. Seems like they're short handed and no one is watching, then the mad dash to finish on time. I'm bitter sweet with the experience and question if I'll ever do it again. ... More
