My rental experience with Pifer Management, specifically Brandon Pifer, was the worst of my life. I lived in the same property in Harrisonburg for three years, with my roommates changing each year. It is for this reason (not complete tenant turnover) that I believe Brandon never did any routine maintenance throughout the summers. When it came time for maintenance to be done, it took forever and was the bare minimum: 1. Our AC stopped working towards the end of one summer; it took a month for it to get fixed. 2. A bathroom pipe burst, leaving an inch of water in the bathroom/surrounding hallway – it was a week before Brandon brought a dehumidifier to suck up the moisture. No further action was taken, and mold surely grew under the carpets. In addition to poor maintenance, we were subjected to possible eviction in the middle of the lease at no fault of our own. We were three unrelated college students living in a Residential 2 zone – no more than 2 unrelated people can live together. We were never made aware of this zoning restriction, and it was surely an attempt to get around the law and pack college kids into a house. We were given a deadline to fix the situation. BRANDON’S SOLUTION WAS TO COME TO US ON THE DEADLINE AND PRESSURE US INTO BUYING THE HOUSE. Not only did he try to pressure us into buying the house, the contract of sale was the perfect example of a contract you should NEVER sign. Finally, Brandon had 90 days after the lease ended to return our security deposit. It took 120 days and constant nagging. I would call Brandon asking about the status to which he would not reply. I would text him; no answer. I would call him at work, no answer, but he immediately texts me then doesn’t respond. He said he had mailed the checks; two weeks go by and no checks. I cannot speak for any other Pifer Management agents, but Brandon runs a really shady operation. Rent checks were made out to him personally, not the company. He tried to bypass zoning laws so that he could fit three college kids into a family home. When the city wised up to his operation, he tried to sell us the house and make it our problem. Nevertheless, he will be the first person to tell you that he is, “a reasonable guy.”

I felt I was overcharged for the job completed. The workers incorrectly set up a washer and dryer, leaving the shipping screws in the washer causing it to break. Luckily the department store was willing to replace it after hours of negotiating back and forth. I brought it to Richies attention that I thought there were more than several hours charged out for time workers were eating or "shopping" for parts. I asked if we could revise the bill to reflect the time my wife had to miss from work for 2 days while the washer was diagnosed and then the next day replaced from the store they were purchased from as well as the time I could not account for. His response is he forgot to bill me almost $400 for materials and a third worker and if I did not pay the bill in full, we would go to court. I paid the bill and decided the only thing I could do is share my experience as to help someone else avoid a similar situation.

Recently we renovated our kitchen with new cabinets, flooring, appliances and changed the floor plan. We contacted a number of local contractors requesting information. We selected The Pifer Companies because of their willingness to understand our concepts and needs. During the actual project, our on-site construction team was professional, courteous and willing to answer all questions. At the end of each day, they cleaned all of their work scrap, floors and attempted to leave us with as little disruption as possible considering that the kitchen was under complete renovation. The project supervisor reinforced our feeling of a professional company caring about their clients. We would recommend Pifer Companies for any construction project which you may have. They have the experience and a dedicated staff willing to demonstrate a professional attitude. For any future project, we will be contacting Pifer Companies.

Pifer completely remodeled our home including a complete gut of our kitchen (including removal of a wall), downstairs bathroom, master bathroom, rewiring of the home and plumbing repair. Richies crew were amazing, they encountered several setback due to the age of the home and the previous owners work. However these guys led by Jay, Aaron and Doug, found the problems, proposed solutions and repaired them in stride! Richie worked with us to find and prioritize what work we needed done now and what could wait and what we could do ourselves to keep us on budget. There are several projects that need work on our home and you can be sure I will be calling Richie when we have the budget.

The Pifer Construction team did a complete remodel of my kitchen and bathroom areas in my home as well as refinished my hardwood floors. They came in on time and on budget. I was impressed with their attention to detail. All the workers that were on site took care to clean up after themselves each day and really treated me and my home with respect. Im so happy with the work that was done and cant say enough about the Pifer Construction team. I definitely will be using them again.

Pifer Construction did excellent work remodeling our unit as a dance studio. They bent over backwards to meet our tight schedule and get every detail correct. They were always available to sort out any problems immediately. Their workmanship is top quality. And they were very pleasant people to work with. In the year since we opened they have come back promptly to fix any small issues that we have found. First class service with a first class smile!

We hired Pifer Construction to remodel a newly purchased house after relocating to the Winchester area. The estimate was honest and the company easy to communicate with. The workmen were professional and friendly. We had them in our house for several weeks, and they were courteous and tried hard not to inconvenience us. The work they did was beautiful and we were very pleased. Pifer Construction, Inc. helped us turn our new house into a home.

I am currently renting through the Pifer company. The people I deal with over the phone whenever I need maintenance are rude. The repairs they do for my apartment are poor quality and they often do not fix what I asked for in the first place. I still dont have hot water after 3 calls over a week. They are poor communicators. They are an asset to the cartel that makes up rental companies in the Winchester area.
