I had hired Ron to do a kitchen floor, a kitchen pantry, electrical and a wall to be removed. We agreed on $6300 for the job so I paid him in full. Big mistake because he did a little bit of electrical and did the support beam and that was it approximately in 2016 and I am still trying to get some of my money back to no avail. I knew Ron from high school time and thought I could trust him but he also ran with my money like a few other people also I see. Wish he would do the right thing and pay back the people he stole from.

The man is a thief, and we used to call him 'friend'. He asked for $30,000 upfront for a very large job. He came back to us several weeks later saying he needed another $15,000 to secure the electrician, plumber, cabinet makers etc.
Approaching the time he was to complete the job, he had not even dropped a dumpster in the driveway. We asked for our money back. I don't believe he had any intention of doing the job or returning our money. We got nothing. We're out the $45,000 plus plenty of legal fees which have accomplished nothing tangible.
Stay away from this man.
Without spite nor embellishment, there is zero truth to this fictitious rendition. This client was unwilling to wait 4 weeks for a start date due to unforeseen delays to make sure a previous project was completed to the customer's satisfaction. This is a common practice and it would have been irresponsible to leave a current project to accommodate such impatience. Given reversed roles, if the project underway was theirs we would've continued to complete it as well. As stated by their own words, this project was canceled 3 days prior to its beginning. Materials were purchased, trades were contracted and the process was to begin with a refuse bin scheduled for the following Monday. The client chose to break their obligations to the agreed contract. After unreasonable negotiations, the client proceeded with frivolous litigation and public slander, trying to claim more than 8 times the agreed project contract. The damages claimed are minuscule compared to the losses the contractor sustained on several different fronts. This is a 5-year-old situation and as remiss I am to revisit it I will offer this one time response to clarify the blatant inaccuracies offered here.

Ron Deppner knew my mom from high school. In 2010, He said he could complete some work on our house and wanted to help out my single mom. He then stole over $2000 of her money, blocked her and my grandparents and never contacted us again. if you want your money stolen with no work done whatsoever, go to Ron Deppner at RJ Contracting!!!!!
There is zero truth to any of this recollection of events from a difficult and petulant child who has nothing to do with, nor any knowledge of this situation. I would gladly defer to the client's own father as to the accuracies and truths of the matter. There is nothing needed to add to this other than this as I don't wish to embarrass someone unnecessarily for transgressions due to a difficult time in their lives of which I have nothing but empathy.
