What Homeowners Have to Say About Del Webb

Mike W our project manager was fantastic.

Dell Webb standards are excellent, but the quality of the workmanship is mostly subcontractor dependent. Our field manager was excellent and required many do-overs by subcontractors not meeting Pulte standards, but not everything could be identified and fixed. ... More

I found that our construction supervisor, Chris, was unresponsive and said what ever would make us happy at the time with no follow through vs. our warranty supervisor (Julie) who is totally responsive and takes care of any problems in a timely fashion and follows up to see that work is done to our satisfaction. ...

I have only lived here for 6 weeks. It would be better to ask after I have been here longer. It has not been without issues. Some have been resolved and some are pending. I continue to notice things.

There are a couple issues I have that should have been explained regarding the outside structure before I purchased the house. Other than that most of the house is beautiful and I am enjoying living in Texas.

Construction seems to be good. The people who do the finish work don't seem to have any pride in the work for the most part, a few do!!

I have only been in the house for 2 months. I am sure they will take care of any problems at the 1 year review.I feel very comfortable with everyone at Pulte/Del Webb. There are some design faults which cannot be changed. However the quality of the materials and fixtures are first rate. My main concern is the finish work. Trim poorly installed,paint and clean up should be improved! Our field manager was outstanding and he tried to accommodate us but I felt he was too busy and could not oversee everything. ... More

Materials used in build out are cheap, thin sheet rock, watered down flat paint, flooring less than average easily scratches with the slightest movement of furnishings, requires soft pads on bottom of every furnishing, heels on shoes easily scratch, small dog nails scratch, in other words, not conducive to living unless you plan to sit and not wear shoes or move, grout not sealed and not an option, thus spec home used white grout which easily gets dirty. Overall the quality of the materials used to build Pulte homes is less than average. ... More

Builders were strict about modifications. There were a lot of "we can't do that" as we went through the options when buying the house. The changes we did make were well documented. Change control was excellent. Fit and finish is average, with all the subcontractors it was expected. The value (4*) comes with the community of like minded owners. ... More

The overall quality of the homes is good, there were a lot of details that needed to be revisited and could have been done better the first time around.

The house at Lakewood Ranch is beautiful and even though we’ve found little things wrong they are going to be fixed. I’m totally unhappy with the closing process and lack of communication from Pulte Title. A closing meeting was scheduled at the Housing Center at Del Webb in Lakewood Ranch and nobody knew about and we did not receive our keys on the supposedly closing day. After over an hour of discussions it turned out that no closing meeting was required because we paid cash for the house, nobody told us! In fact 2 weeks before I wrote an e-mail to the Sales Rep. asking if the meeting was still on due to the Coronavirus Restrictions and he said yes. Turns out our keys to the house were sent to our Calif. Resident when we were here in Florida. The whole closing process left me totally unsatisfied and thought it was very unprofessional when your spending good money on a house. ... More

The house design and fundamental build is excellent and the location can't be beat, but the fit and finish of the trim and paint was unacceptable. Be prepared to redo a lot of finish work if you expected a quality job.

called many timers,Nick never responded.

Was unhappy with, how the crew forgot to install the Loop that was always in contract, so they had to compromise our main slab pour breaking it up to go back and install something that should have been install correctly. They export garage floor to cover the defect, but the expiry job was poorly done many pits in floor. Backsplash wasn’t happy with the finish. All the tiles are not level in home with some chips. ... More

Lots of issues with being blocked in and not able to get in and out of my driveway.

The build quality of our new home is excellent! We were also impressed with the responsiveness and support from our Field Manager, Kohl F. However, the landscaping by Pulte's preferred contractor was a major disappointment and we will need to redo it all. Do not use their contractor. You will regret it. ... More

Pulte mortgage was excellent to work with. The quality of building materials was not equal to the cost of the house. Builder had no flexibility to correct design flaws.

No internet to start. AT&T boxes buried and hard to find.

Painters were extremely sloppy - there is paint dripped everywhere! There is also grout on the tile floors which is very difficult to remove. The quality of the paint isn't great - they will not let you buy your own paint for them to use.

Ask lots of questions about materials used in homes.

The initial drive into Stone Creek as well as the models and the staff all A+. The finished product comes in at a C for the following reasons. Attention to detail is lacking both inside and out. For example, on the interior we needed to sand and re-paint some window sills and caulk base board joints and crown molding shortly after moving in. Had issues with shutters because the windows are not even. On the exterior. By far the outside is our biggest disappointment for the following reasons. Ground is so uneven our new $600.00 lawn mower is taking a beating after just 2 uses. A very nice representative from Del Webb told us that they would have the lawn rolled in an effort to help with the unevenness. Because there are no trees, shrubs or foliage to somewhat block the the 8 homes in our direct view from our gathering room, dining room and lanai it is truly our biggest disappointment. The property is a nice size but it feels like a baron land when I open the shutters. ... More

Overall the quality of the Pulte home is OK. My impression is that in some areas, especially finish work the personnel got a bit sloppy. On one pantry rack one bracket was missing and some of the caulk was sloppy. My main complaint deals with TAC who is the design center used in this community. I would never recommend TAC. The service we received at the initial appointment was terrible and the quality of the floor they put in was terrible. We had to replace it at our cost. ... More

Don't deal with Pulte Mortgage

The trim carpentry was poor in some spots. The paint job and chaulking was sloppy. The final cleaning was just OK certainly not real thorough.

The development is well planned with lots of landscaping, walking paths, nature trails and friendly people and the weather is great!
