Pulte Homes Reviews

Most of my minor issues were addressed quickly and professionally

We Love the floor plan

We’ll have to wait and see how customer service does when needed for details large or small that may come up. Response and communication will tell the story.

The overall quality is good.

The Sales Team and the Construction Team were great to work with and very supportive throughout the process. They were responsive to concerns and addressed them. They have continued to be supportive even after closing.

We were very happy with the initial process of getting started and selecting our options and watching the house go up. I feel the builder was responsive during the building process and kept us well up to date on their progress. After moving in we have been somewhat disappointed in some of the quality of the work. The base paint seems very cheap and comes off the wall with water. So wiping a dirt smudge off the wall ended up with missing paint and just brushing against the wall leaves smeared “dirty” areas. We found dried caulking stuck to random cabinet surfaces around the kitchen, paint and stain splatters on the floor, railing and baseboards in multiple areas. I guess it was just timing as well because the sod laid for our yard in April was mostly dead when we moved in and they said it would fill in but over a month later we still have areas completely dead. This was a 6-7 month long process and we were feeling pretty good the whole time but right at the tail end it seemed like the quality of work was lacking in some areas, the paint in particular is really upsetting. With 4 kids I imagine that half my paint will be gone within a year just from wiping finger prints off the wall with a wet wash cloth. ... More

Delivered home as per promised timelines. Any issues were addressed promptly. Good customer experience !

Pulte offered floor plan option we were looking for. A bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor was required for my elderly parents who can't climb stairs. First floor sunroom was a good addition. Another bedroom on the second floor was offered with an attached bathroom for my daughters. Second floor owners bedroom with attached master bath and walk-in closets was huge.

Interest and pride exhibited by the selling agent and the field manager. They were available to answer my questions.

There have been a few inconveniences with have a rent-a-John in front of our house, landscaping crew running over water meter and Delco having to come out to mend the issues.

I give Pulte 4 stars out of 5. I would say we have a good house and it was a good experience, but we weren't blown away. Pulte is a big corporation, so they are efficient but not relational. Plan to stick to the details of the contract. It may be a matter of managing expectations.

We were kept informed of the happening on weekly basis. We could see the home getting build

Overall, I would recommend Pulte as a builder. Home building/buying isn't the easiest process but Pulte does a good job of communicating timely. There is room for improvement on transparency of changes and managing expectations.

Pulte Homes will not make improvements requested by the customer; such as satin or semi-gloss paint instead of flat paint in the garage and bathrooms, concrete instead of plastic water trays for exterior downspouts, white instead of black lanai ceiling light fixtures, or the installation of a wine cooler.

It was great, we hope the trust we have with Pulte will continue.

Ask questions and get everything in writing. Don't assume you are getting all the information or resources you need. Lots of checks needed which can be overwhelming so use the project manager as a resource to help you- they are knowledgeable and do want you to have a good home.

Overall good experience even though there were some delays in the building process.

Sales should be more informative as to what is available per home. Landscaping is terrible. Got dead sod and the only response was “don’t worry it will come back”. Going on two months and sod is still dead. Very disappointed in landscape.

The initial loan application was smooth. The follow/up loan process was rough and too stressful.

Overall very happy with our new home. Felt like a few things were not like the model and surprised. The “smart” features are not coordinated and barely enhance the home. Some do not work properly and ownership of the problem was dumped on the installing contractor who has been very poor on getting things right. Very long wait for hot water at all points. But again, the build process and quality has been excellent overall. Shane was very upfront and responsive, and Max too but he came near the end.

Building with Pulte homes was a positive experience. From the initial consultation, through the design appointment and the build process. There were some issues at move in, but our build manager Don took care of all of them in a very efficient manner. He was fantastic. With any new home, nothing will be perfect. There was paint splatter on places it should not have been, minor imperfections in installation pieces, and so on. I am overall happy with the experience and have already referred multiple family members who are buying in the oakfield community!

Our Field Manager Jonathan has been instrumental throughout the home buying process. He has answered every question we’ve had and has fixed any issue without any hesitation. We are very impressive with his responsiveness. However, we would love to have seen some more attention to detail as far as workmanship. There has been some instances where we can tell the work was rushed. No major issue, we just would have liked to see the quality a little better.

We are excited to start a new chapter of our lives on our Pulte home.

Building from afar is always a challenge. My sales agent Matt was always there to answer my questions. Phone calls and texts made the process easier. Weekly photos were much appreciated. My Building Super was great too. Thankful for John overseeing the actual construction.

We're happy with the layout and the choice of flooring, tiles, and paint colors. However, the workmanship was hurriedly done to complete the job. There were many rough edges, chipped tiles, grout unsealed and excess grout and paint drips that should have been corrected. Also, our new washing machine required warranty work, which took seven weeks to get new parts installed. Pulte refused to replace with a working washer and turned the matter over to Whirlpool, who insisted that they would order new parts but had no idea when they would arrive.
