Reseñas de Del Webb

There is QUALITY CONTROL in place during the building process. Builders are rude and do not explain nor justify delays in the construction process. Homeowners have the right to ask questions and not being reprimanded by the builders. It’s necessary to get a Quality Control System in place that homeowners can use or talk to instead of mean and disrespectful builders. We placed a complaint about Russ, our builder at the time not knowing that we would get a call back from Bryan screaming at us from the top of his lungs to “BACK OFF”. Bryan, was beyond rude and disrespectful. This is a culture of terror and bullying towards the homeowners that pay for his salary. We have heard several complaints about him after moving into our new home. Nobody seems to be interested in complaining anymore as nothing changes. After moving in Quality Control Again, ZERO. Always trying to push to get things done. Subs are not held liable for the mess they make. Nails everywhere, no magnet enforcement, muddy streets for weeks in a row. Homeowners are NOT the first priority. ... Más

For the price of this home the quality was substandard. We upgraded everything and have issues, in particular, with the cabinetry - so many scratches and inferior painting, and the interior paint job was terrible. Our construction manager even told us that if we tried to wipe away anything the paint would come off. In speaking with neighbors again tile, roof, and gas meter problems. We asked consistently for the price of the "standard" furnishings, like flooring, carpet, cabinets, etc., to be shown on our upgrade sheet and it never was. Therefore, we consider that we paid way over market value for an upgrade and did not receive any credit off that price for the standard furnishings. They kept telling us that it was adjusted which simply was not true; otherwise, why would it not be shown on the contract numbers. ... Más

LACK OF COMMUNICATION! The guy who sold my house quit or got fired. I was not informed. Builder manager told me closing would be Halloween 2023 but closing didn’t happen until December 13th and it shouldn’t happened that day. The house was not completed even though I was told during the walk through the week before that it would be. I moved over 800 miles and already had the movers arranged. And guess what it is still stuff that needs to be done. If I could have gotten a complete refund, I would have.

Framing was sub standard to begin with and therefore all trim and finish work was fudged. Worksite was absolutely filthy and lots of damage occured as a result such as a cracked tub Landscaping particularly sod is very poor not only quality but application. Drainage is also a big issue

Most of the customer facing staff did a good job especially Lauren, Daniel, Randy, Bryson and Elena. The staff behind the scenes, the decision makers, could care less about the homeowner. Pulte policies and decisions are all about maximizing profits as opposed to creating a quality product and satisfied customers.

6th home build and definitely an overall bad experience. This new community was rushed into the market with not enough managers or trade skills. As such, a majority of us first dwellers suffered and are still suffering. Too many issues to list but we do have a list and pictures. One example, the handles on the garage doors had paint fingerprints on them, were falling off and the attaching hardware was all rusted! No excuses. Just hope Del Webb takes care of all the issues then maybe my assessment with move more into the positive.

After building a number of custom homes in the past, I found Del Webb incredibly inflexible. They were very over priced, behind schedule and the workmanship was poor. I think much of this may be attributable to the pressure Del puts on sub contractors to complete their work. I know I sound very negative - in the end, we are happy with our new home and the location.

Roof tiles not mortered down, foam showing in roof eve, needs stucco, roof dryer vent installed wrong, walls in house not straight. Baseboards not straight,bath cabinet installed wrong, shelves will not stay in place, caulk not finished in bathroom and kitchen, floor outlet missing screws, some kitchen cabinets are warped, overspray on cement patio, window caulk missing, patio screen door does not slide properly, dishwasher installed improper crooked, installer just cut off one mounting bracket, too much to list all

There are way too many issues and problems that we experienced with Pulte in our home buying experience for me to include here. Some important ones: A huge lack of information and tons of contradictory and incorrect information from Pulte throughout, mistakes with the building of the home that I had to catch (the most obvious of which was two doors being installed wrong - "backwards"), the HVAC system not operating properly (and so obviously not started-up and checked properly) so that it's operation caused terrible temperature conditions and used a ridiculously high amount of electrical energy (that we are stuck with the bill for!!!) until the improper operation of the system was corrected (not until more than a week after we moved in), etc. etc. Last example - this review came to us as "Del Webb DW BayView Echelon 65's", but that's not the correct name of the community (just one more bit of incorrect information - that had to come from Pulte - that shows a clear lack of attention to detail, which we experienced throughout the home buying process). I expect better from my 3rd grade granddaughter. ... Más

We were long distance buyers. We came out three different times to inspect the build. I personally found things that were off and told Jared about them and he said he’d take care of them. He did some, but not most. They affected the proper alignments of cabinetry and countertops later. The front door was installed crooked. That has since been handled by needing to take off the lower threshold and reinstall correctly. I had asked Jared to please make sure the drains were not clogged as MANY reports had come to light of debris being stuffed and causing blockage.He assured me he took care of it. We had total blockage within 1 1/2 weeks. I asked Jared to make sure the floors were level before installation and that leveling compound was used. I was assured of that. Decided to put different flooring in and now see instead of leveling, he grounded a great deal of the floor, removing the natural seal concrete makes when poured. He created even more problems doing that. Schematics of the plans for this house were NOT followed. The master shower was not correctly installed as per the floor plans that I have a copy of. Because of the inconsistencies, the shower is NOT safe as it is right now. I’ve just realized the sliding doors to our back porch area was put in backwards. Does Pulte not make provisions for houses where they flip the floor plans? When installing the air conditioning. Heating unit, do you not install the needed filter? Ours wasn’t, and we had wired wiring done. Not safe on many different levels. There are many different items that need to be addressed to make this house properly built so we can make this our home. Warranty has been both good and extremely bad with communication and follow through. I was told by Valen to “ Trust the process”. It is difficult to do this because so many times we’ve been misdirected or out and out lied to. Safety issue like the plumbing, drainage, and that shower need to be addressed IMMEDIATELY. Instead, we are ridiculed, pushed off, or ignored. The exception to that was Michelle in warranty . She was great on the plumbing issues (2). We think our house will become a beautiful home as we work on it, but Pulte has allowed poor workmanship, poor quality merchandise, and poor supervision to permeate this building process. These homes are, in my opinion, not built as safely as they should be. We are cash buyers. We came into this with honest intentions, and expected the same from Pulte. , Pulte needs to have their president from Tampa come out and look at all the corners that are being cut in the build and rectify that for all the future homeowners. Thank you If interested in more information, please do at at us again. I’d personally like to help in any way I can as the consumer ... Más

Del Webb needs to hire professional vendors, experienced construction managers and not overload them with 35 plus houses to manage. Upper management is non responsive including the President of Pulte. The whole process needs to improve.

We feel the home is poorly built. The tray ceiling has marks on it, the tile floor is cracked going into the main bedroom, kitchen drawers are off the track, there is blue “stuff” on the hall bathroom shower tile as if some one, not us, took a shower

I thought the whole process is just average! I believe they kind of rushed the whole house build! The quality is below average… had to deal with things like doors not level or closing correctly. Many hinges still have paint splatters! I even had a window screen put in severely bent! For an $512,000 I would expect better quality!!

Dealing with Pulte mortgage was a tedious experience. Pulte insurance was horrible, they presented an unrated carrier with horrible reviews on their claims paying. We paid to have our garage floor epoxy coated; they applied the coating over cracks. When I asked why they didn't fix them first I was told " we don't do that". We should have been told to have done by an outside contractor that does the job right. So far the warranty department has responsive.

Sales experience felt dishonest. The homesite we chose and even offered to put money down on and was promised was ours. (once it was released into inventory) Was sold a week later to someone else knowing that we had already committed to it. The explanation we were given was "My manager screwed up." Since then we spoke to the people who bought our lot and they shared with us that their sales women told them that they better make up their mind quickly, because she knew someone else wanted the lot and that they were going to have new neighbors who were upset at them for buying their lot. So you be the judge, honest or dishonest. That is how we started our Journey with Pulte. ... Más

Everyone we encountered is very nice. However the materials used are poor quality and the installers/builders are not trained very well. Items were installed incorrectly and repeatedly had to be re-installed. A tremendous waste of resources. We love the Del Webb lifestyle and are enjoying living here, but our home building experience was not pleasant. We hope our home survives past warranty.

After having good experiences in building 3 homes, our expectations were high after reviewing the home building stages of Del Webb's homes online. We experience none of the process that was advertised, until we complained, and then we still only received 1 of the building stages of the presentation. We had 3 different construction managers who did not communicate with each other which caused us to missed opportunities to make changes we wanted before the final deadline. We visited a different location where we chose the model we wanted to purchase (due to our location was not completely built). The Sale Rep was unaware of certain home features at our location where our house was going to be built, which caused us to miss opportunities to purchase other features. After closing we could not live in our home due to the infestation of insects in the home, and a tub I could not use for a week. I was very upset and hurt for the first time in building a home and our last home for retirement. Numerous cosmetics and some structural issues, which was surprising for the price of our home, and still ongoing issues approximately 30 days after closing. We never heard from anyone of our concerns during our building process after we made two attempts, through customer service and corporate through our survey process. We are currently working with a wonderful Customer Care Manager to address our concerns, and issues with our new home that's the only reason why we marked "Trustworthiness" and "Responsiveness to issues" a 3. We are hopeful these issues will be resolved soon. We wanted to be honest about our experience so no one else will have to deal with these types of issues moving forward. The community is beautiful, but the workmanship lack quality and communication lacks real customer service experience. ... Más

Be prepared to spend another $50,000 over what the list price is of your home. The upgrades are ridiculously overpriced, and they do not allow for even the smallest of changes to the plan. You have no say on what landscaping is put in, so you have to tear it out and start over. They are very slow in fixing the things that were not installed correctly to begin with. The new home is great but Pulte as a company sucks big time.

Make sure you get everything in writing up front and during the build process. Talk is cheap! The model homes and the actual homes are different. More than just the upgrades in the model homes. examples - placement of A/C unit, width of paved walkways, quality of finish,... Found many issues with framing, electrical and plumbing, prior to the drywall being installed. Even after the drywall was installed, there are walls that are not plumb or right angle to one another. When a door in one of the hallways is closed, the entire wall shakes. Poor design. Attention to details is lacking! ... Más

Poor workmanship of interior trim, door installations, shower and second bath tile work/grouting. Above rating is a reflection of this. We were relatively happy until this stage of the project.

I really like my home, but the process was very stressful and unpleasant. Sales person was hardly ever available and lacked interest in helping or answering questions. She was not available for any appointments scheduled with builder. The day of the closing I had to ask the builder if he could call her so that she could join us to be part of the last walk thru. She came for a short time. Sales rep was not present at closing. I felt discriminated. The builder was inefficient. We had to delay the closing by a day because several things were not completed. The house was left very dirty. Another builder lend me a blade so that I could take grout and film off the tile and countertop. I am still waiting for flood lights to be installed. Paint job was terrible. I wish I had more positive comments. I am glad building process is almost done and look forward to enjoying my home. ... Más

There were issues before closing that were not resolved and closing was delayed causing my belongings to be moved again into storage. The quality of workmanship was poor - paint on the floor and on the windows, exterior and interior doors out of line, sloppy paint job. The construction manager tried his best to resolve all the issues but with his other workload, it was overwhelming. It has been more than a month since closing and all issues are still not resolved.

From miss communication during the early buying process on the lot we chose to construction errors and attempts to hide issues. I’m glad it’s over and I don’t have a part time job anymore overseeing the process. We love the community but it was a hard fought fight to get here.

Air Conditioning does not adequately provide cooling to Master Bedroom, Master Bathroom and Walk-In Closet. Large Holes left in the Garage Floor. Front Door not sealed properly. Piece of Trim cut to short in Master Bathroom which has left home exposed to Ants and other insects entering the home through Large Opening. Landscaping and Sod are Very Poor Quality for thr Price Paid for this Home. Large amount of Weeds were left present in Landscaped Areas at Time of Closing. Dead Sod was installed in yard. Some Areas did not have Sod installed at all.
