Shane Thans is a guy you do not want to hire if you want the job done right by an honest person who won't take short cuts to save money. He will take short cuts and do things the incorrect way and still charge you the full price even if it means in a few months all the work he did will create major issues in your home.
He performs plumbing and electrical work without a license in the state of MA and that is illegal as the law states he needs to have a license to perform such work. He has done both plumbing and electrical work in homes incorrectly that could have caused people to lose their homes had they not caught the errors when another contactor was hired to finish Shane's job due to the fact that he abandons his work when he receives any kind of payment.
This guy also has multiple warrants for his arrest and uses many alias names such as Gary Thans, David Thans and Bill McGrath. I suggest before hiring anyone, check their license or some sort of ID to make sure you are not hiring Shane Thans. He likes to be paid under the table to avoid not only paying taxes from he owes the State of MA money for child support because a few of his children in the custody of DSS. He puts all of his belongings that have monetary value in his brother's name to once again avoid paying taxes and the state for child support. He drives a white Lumina van and DOES NOT have a valid driver's license. He will promise you that he can do the job and always bid lower than all the other contactors you met with, he then request a down paymentonce he receives it, he disappears! He do not call the customer and when you try to call him, he will threaten you!
There are times where he will begin the job as some people will tell him that they will not pay until half the job is done, once he gets half way through the job, he will receive some payment and once again, he will disappear, never to be heard from again! This guy also is the Chapter President of Fathers Supporting Fathers in MA. He scams people there as well. He takes their donation and uses it for his personal use. He will give you nothing but headache and he knows how to play the game well as scamming people is what he does for a living! He will tell you he can do whatever job it is you have and then go home and look it up on the internet to figure out how to actually do the work he was hired to do.
Just do yourself and favor and DO NOT HIRE HIM! I know of several people he has taken advantage of and we will not give up until he gives us our money back! Please if you see this guy; call the cops so he can be taken into custody for his warrants. He never shows up in court because he is afraid of being arrested. So instead, he never goes and the warrants just keep stacking up.
