Del Webb Reviews

The building experience overall was great we were at the house every day. My only complaint was with the design center. There were many options that were not even mentioned and were not found out until too late. This was very disappointing. I would recommend that future buyers are given a check off list so they know what is standard and optional. Also at the sales office, a computer mock-up of the home In color would be very helpful so you know what you are buying. We did not know the actual color design until the home was completed. Also towel and toilet bars should be standard. Supervisor was great however. ... More

No problems to report here

This is not a custom built home. I have always had a custom built home. Something you have to sacrifice to have a great community like Stone Creek. We love it here.

The sales people were hard to contact a lot of the time. I don't have a comfort height toilet in my bathroom because a change order was never done and I was docu signing so many forms because I lived in another state. The salesperson said not to worry. She would do the change order. She did not do it. I was involved with so many things that it never got done. It was del webb responsibility to see that this change order was done. I should not have to now pay for a modification which is what I have been told I will have to do if I want a comfort toilet. There are other issues that should be addressed and they have not been. I am told the tile person is backlogged. I don't even hear from the tile person to be given an appt. regarding the threshold to my bathroom being too high and dangerous. ... More

Very pleased with how the staff and crew managed all the covid related issues. My condo is beautiful and cozy.

The Finnish work is sloppy. Once I signed the papers none of the problems with the house were fixed. ZERO communication on follow up. Seems like they just want to move on to building more houses and don’t care about customer satisfaction.

Workmanship is not what expected, could be much better

Absolutely no communication from sales when the sale closed. Construction side did well considering the supply issues faced. Response was immediate from warranty. The follow through of vendors remains so-so.

My realitor was great and worked with me the entire process. I love my neighbors and the community. The workmanship, however, needs major improvement. January was the month to have all repairs addressed...still waiting. We flooded within a week after move in. The plumber didn't tighten the pipes and the dishwasher knocked it loose. Upgraded cabinets, cheaply made, cracked tiles, crooked counter, and more. Our Pulte Rep is trying. But actually having someone show up to fo the repairs, is another story. We are happy to have moved here, but disappointed in the builder.

Pool construction was a disaster. Crushed underground pipes found. Sub had not properly tested. Multiple delays in addressing punch list and warranty issues. How long does it take Pulte to change a light bulb (actually fix a light post) that has never worked in the two months since closing? Don't know, because still not fixed.

Very poor workmanship for a high-priced product. What we got wasn't what the model looked like. Although Del Webb stands behind their product and eventually everything will be fixed, the continual no-shows by contractors are doubly disturbing. You would think it would be much better for both Del Webb and the owners if things were done right the first time. Quality Control is definitely lacking.

I did not have a good experience with the builder. I think the sub-contractors were not experienced in their trade. Pulte Homes sold too many homes at once where they could not hand the demand and supplies. I'm don't want to hear it was all about COVID, that's when you should have stopped selling. We are still waiting for bathroom light fixtures and 4 flood light bulbs that were supposed to be in when we signed. As for completion or status of work requests, not happy with the timelines or the status updates.

Pay attention to details to avoid scheduling issues.

Been in home little over one month. Still waiting for some floor trim to be finished, still waiting on refrigerator we ordered. Lots of delays. Started my one year warranty list already.

The design of the units are not only functional, but interesting, and offer a wide variety of choices. The landscaping thus far has also been quite appealing.

Sales and design teams were excellent and kept us up to date on progress of the build and access / options for supply issues due to Covid. Timeline was not changed. No delays.

Happy with layout and build of home. Unhappy with the lack of attention to detail from the craftsman that built our home.

Don’t settle for poor quality of workmanship. We shouldn’t have settled until corrections were made.

This is not the first new home that I have built so I am not new to the experience. That said, I was surprised with the number of major quality issues that existed with the house when we were given the keys. From major mechanical issues and missed key parts in the attic and on the roof to a clogged water system and non-functioning electrical outlets, the lack of quality checks and low standard of acceptability on visual items was dumbfounding. The Pulte support services including Sales, Mortgage, Design Center and Smart Home were exemplary and the people there were a joy to work with. Where Pulte totally fell down was with the build execution and now the real completion of the house has been left to the Customer Service rep who is doing his best to close out the issues. In a nutshell, Pulte seems to be building too many houses too fast and not doing the necessary checks along the way to ensure a quality finished product. ... More

Be wary of the quality of their work

Your phone service is the worst. God forbid I need medical help because there is no service here if I need to send a message or talk to a client I need to get in my car and drive. Failed calls are the norm. While you might say it nothing you can do then you should advertise the fact that this is at this time off the grid living with no cable as well. Worst experience ever

Quality of concrete work is the worst I Have seen. Sloppy, Hasty, Unprofessional, Cheep Quality work. Paint, sheetrock, caulk and finish carpentry sloppy and unprofessional, especially at the bottom of walls

Run, don't walk. They will leave you with an unfinished house. They must be a company going down the tubes since they're ONLY interested in selling as many houses as quick as they can. They are NOT in any way the old Del Webb. They will ruin your retirement experience>

The overall purchase and closing was great. No issues at all. The overall home and the build is not the same experience. The structural portion of the hoe was solid. The cosmetics of the home and workmanship was not as expected. Very disappointed in the cabinets damage and the paint and sparkling job.

I like my new home and the community. The property management staff has been helpful. The design of the house attracted me to it. The open kitchen, the covered lanai, and the covered front porch are all desirable. I am very happy with the led lighting. I would suggest that a buyer add extra lighting over the location of the headboards of the beds and by the entry door in the garage. I am glad that I did this. I was disappointed by the many items that remained unfinished at the time of the closing. I am spending a lot of time assisting with the resolution of the items. If I am not here at the time of the repair, too many things get left undone. In general, the response has been good to resolving the issues and most of the open items have been taken care of. However, the carpet was installed with damaged fibers throughout and the installation was substandard. There are also many highly visible gaps showing at the baseboard. I am still waiting for a resolution to this issue over a month since the closing. The builder needs to hire more experienced installers, and if something goes wrong, the issue should be resolved quickly. Flooring is important. It is difficult and inconvenient to change it once the furniture is moved into the house. Experienced installers should inspect the products for defects and carefully install only quality materials that are free from defects. ... More
