A nightmare to complete home

  • Andrew B.

  • Albuquerque, NM

Never fully completed home after continued promises . Always had excuses because of it’s this contractors fault it’s that contractors fault. That shouldn’t be my problem as a home buyer. And I shouldn’t have to make 1000 phones calls to get it fixed after a problem has already been noted multiple times. Multipurpose things also had to be fixed or change because they were not what was selected at design center .

Contracted working crew does not clean up area after working each day. I found 17 loose nails left around working area. Luckily my vehicle did not suffer a tire flat, however a neighbor did.

Frustrated

  • Anonymous

  • Warminster, PA

A week into moving into our new home I discovered a leak in my front window which has pieces of drywall falling as well as water marks on the wall underneath. Days later I had a new leak in my roof which came through my master bath as well as my kitchen ceiling. I have been reaching out to the warranty company for 3 1/2 weeks now to get my “roof inspection report” and get my home fixed. In addition, I am still waiting for repairs from pre closing to be completed and I continue to watch my sod die. I love my home but these past 6 weeks have been extremely frustrating.

Good builder and on time delivery

My personal experience with Pulte homes have been good. There have been a few challenges midway but it eventually ended well. The house was delivered as committed. The overall quality is good but can definitly improve on some final finishing details. However the response from sales and field team was very prompt.

Disappointed

  • Ashley F.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 27, 2019
  • Odessa, FL

Upon purchasing my home I was told about several walk through processes that would happen to ensure my satisfaction with the house. None of those meetings have been accomplished, and when multiple issues arrived including drainage issues and flooding the company was not available to speak on important foundational issues. I feel as though I was offered the moon and the stars at closing, and none of that has come into fruition. This has been an incredibly frustrating and disappointing process. I would appreciate it if somebody would call to address my concerns since I have been unable to get ...

Extremely poor indoor texture.

  • Richard M.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 27, 2019
  • Albuquerque, NM

We were extremely happy with the building process until they started the interior buildout. The sub- contractor that Pulte used to install the interior texture did the worst job I have ever seen on texture. We actually asked Pulte to re-do all the texture in the house which they gladly did but it was impossible to get it all done to a quality standard. We were extremely disappointed that we had to live with the inferior texture but we had to close on our home as we had sold our existing home.

Pulte Homes - We’re having to deal with issues that took several years to develop

  • Louis S.
  • Verified HomeBuyer

  • Berlin, MD

We’re having to deal with issues that took several years to develop in our previous home, here in a couple months of living here. A prime example is stress cracks in the drywall near door openings. Also have a seal that’s come loose on the glass shower door which we NEVER had happen on our glass doors in our previous home. Also trim pieces in and outside the home not cut correctly and caulking cracking inside the home. Some of these issues have been addressed but not others. We have a bedroom door which won’t latch and I was expecting someone Friday, August 23, to fix it. A repair order had ...

Read all the paper work before agreeing to sign with pulte mortgage . They say they will give you $10,000.00 toward close but not really when they are paying for stuff that is typically paid for by the seller out of said $10,000.00

Not quite finished

  • William F.

  • Plain City, OH

Construction process was good up until closing. Day of closing there were still workers in the home. Landscaping had not begun. The walk prior to closing had the home still waiting to be cleaned. The closing with Pulte Mortgage went well. Came back to house to find workers had left trash and some items were incomplete. Landscaping was not completed until almost 60 days after closing. Field Manager was unwilling to address items from the 30 day list due to our schedules not lining up during the summer. He said that policy was the reason. I reminded him of the fact the home wasn't ...

New home owners need to make sure they write down all of their change order numbers and colors and Pulte comes back and takes care of all of the little things that you didn’t see when you move in, be persistent on that. Other than that Patti and Jeff have been very awesome with all the help that they’ve given us

Overall bad experience with Pulte

low quality workmanship. Lots of scratches/scuffs on new walls/cabinets/flooring, etc. We identified issues at our final walk through but things took weeks to get fixed after we moved in. Very slow response. Overall, I would not recommend this builder.

Middle of the road.

Too many negative happened during construction. Not the slightest bit of cooperation from the building side. Landscaping was a complete joke. Only positive results were from the sales, design and mortgage areas.
