Workmanship

  • Christine I.

  • ALVA, FL

Workmanship is good considering the allowed materials. My complaints are regarding materials. Flat paint is bad. It cannot be washed. I would have rather been given an allowance for appliances because these are REALLY BASIC. Jered’s explanations of everything were very comprehensive. Any issues I reported to be addressed have been so far taken care of in a timely manner.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that the workmanship met your expectations and that Jered provided clear and comprehensive explanations throughout the process. We understand your concerns regarding material choices, including the flat paint and appliance selections. It’s also good to know that any reported issues have been addressed in a timely manner, and your comments will be shared with our team as we continue to evaluate options that best meet homeowner expectations. ^KH

Highly priced homes

  • Bolingbrook, IL

Very expensive starting from lot until utilities. Quality and workmanship is not up to the mark for the price paid for the home. Very limited walk through and that not adequate time provided. Floors on level is not even. Paid for many customization but most of them are below satisfactory level.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the cost, workmanship, and customization quality did not meet your expectations, and that the walkthrough time felt insufficient.

Overall happy with the house. Love the layout. I wish my floor was a better quality. I can feel air pockets as I walk around the house. But when I was in the buying process the team took the time to explain and walk me through everything.

Everyone I delt with was excellent. Pulte did a weak job in delivering on time.

  • Roger M.
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • North Reading, MA

I was impressed by the professionalism and effort of all of the Pulte staff. The unit was in excellent shape with very few defects. The unit was very slow in being delivered. Sure the NatGrid was late. But after they finished, not much happened. Very inconvenient for someone who is spending that much money. Overall the quality of the appliances is mediocre. The heating unit and washer/dryer are exceptionally loud.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found our team professional and that the home itself was delivered in excellent condition with minimal defects. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the delays in delivery and the inconvenience this caused, as well as for your concerns regarding appliance and equipment noise.

Jayne was awesome. The mortgage team was okay, sometimes rude. Jason was okay, very helpful up until I told him I finished the review he asked me to fill out positively for him. Then he got less responsive and dismissed what to me was a glaring defect in one of their repairs.

Pulte Homes responded:

We have had a great experience working with Bradley, Shaun and Lauren to build our home. They were very helpful and always available to answer questions we had. The build quality is very good and we had 3rd party inspectors before closing and they also remarked on the great work done. We would recommend Pulte to our friends and family without hesitation

Jon, the sales consultant was exceptionally helpful and responsive to all our questions. He told us that we could reach him anytime and even on his day offs. He made our buying experience very pleasant and smooth. The escrow and title process was difficult and challenging. There were at least three individuals that we had to deal with and each requesting multiple documents, some duplicate. There was no coordination among them that left me totally frustrated at times. I suggest that appoint a single point person that the buyer needs to work with for both the title and escrow processes ...

We had some issues with the sales folks. They were NOT up to date on the features. The big problem turned out to be the fireplace. It is more decorative than functional. I found a neighbor who has one took the plate glass off the front of his so heat could better enter the room. It melted some of the siding where the vent went out the rear of the house. Got to hot. I told the agent I loved gas fireplaces as they throw off a lot of heat. The sales person did not know about this failure in the fireplace. I would not have had one if I knew this about it.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear about the confusion around the fireplace features and that the information provided did not align with how the product functions. We understand how disappointing it can be to learn after the fact that an option does not meet your expectations, especially when it was an important factor in your decision. Your feedback about product knowledge and communication is appreciated and will be shared with our team to help ensure clearer, more accurate guidance for future homebuyers. ^KH

We bought the home at Highpointe due to location and the attractive models we visited. We were pressed for time due to work relocation and time-limited rental, so we welcomed a speedy purchase, but perhaps we should have had a deep look into the actual quality of materials and tradesmen workmanship. It begins with having to have window frames corrected. There were various windows that we installed crookedly and had to be remedied, followed by toilet paper dispensers that were poorly mounted and could not be used, followed by a shower door that scraped the floor and had to be addressed by ...

Sales Rep Megan, Design Center Rep Maureen, CM Daniel and Customer Rep Kayla were all great to work with. CM Daniel, in particular, listened to my concerns and worked to address them. Getting things done quickly, however, was less satisfactory, which was frustrating when I was eager to get settled and enjoy my new home. My main criticism is the quality of the finishing on the woodworking. Hopefully this will be addressed at the quality review in about 9 months.

The sales rep was great. We got what we asked for. The appliances for what we paid were abysmal. We could not opt out on the purchase of the stove that was provided. The dishwasher was of poor quality. The handle fell off in 6 weeks. The quality that Pulte claims to provide is not what we received.
