About Shaw’s Service Station

A family garage, since the 1950s.

Keeping your vehicle safe, reliable and on the road.

We check things properly before we recommend work, so customers know what needs doing, why it needs doing and what can wait.

Shaw's Service Station on Foryd Road, Kinmel Bay

Our Story

Two branches, one family, one standard

Shaw’s Service Station has been a well-reputed centre for car repairs and servicing since the 1950s, and since the current team took over in 2012 the garage has gone from strength to strength, with two branches — one in Kinmel Bay on Foryd Road and one in Rhyl on Glan Y Morfa Industrial Estate. It is a true family business, with four family members working in the garage, which is why we really care about the quality of the work we produce and the service our customers receive.

We cater for all makes and models of cars and vans, including hybrid and electric. The two workshops do different work: Kinmel Bay is MOT testing, servicing, mechanical repairs and everyday vehicle maintenance for local customers, while Rhyl takes advanced diagnostics, electrical work, EV and hybrid work, vans, fleet vehicles and complex repairs, alongside general servicing and repairs.

Shaw's has four Level 3 EV technicians, one Level 4 EV technician and one technician trained directly by Tesla. All EV and high voltage work is carried out through the Rhyl workshop. It is equipped for it — which is why we were accepted into HEVRA, the network of the best EV and hybrid specialist workshops in the country.

“We understand how stressful it can be when your car breaks down or has to go into the garage, so we’re always at hand to answer any questions you might have — or just to give you some advice.”

— The Shaw’s team

How we work

The Shaw’s way

Four things, in this order. They are the same four whether you are in for an MOT or a fault nobody else has got to the bottom of.

We check it properly.

Every job starts with a proper look at the vehicle, so we find out what is actually wrong before anyone suggests replacing anything. We do not guess, and we do not fit parts hoping for the best.

We explain it properly.

You are told what needs doing, why it needs doing and what can wait — in plain terms, before anything is agreed. If we recommend it, we can show you why.

We do the job properly.

The manufacturer's own schedule, the right parts and Castrol oils — so your warranty stays intact. Parts and labour are covered by Servicesure's National Warranty for a minimum of 12 months or 12,000 miles.

You decide what gets done.

Nothing happens on the assumption you would have said yes. Every job is quoted before it starts, and if we find something you did not book in for, you hear about it and choose.

Our branches

Two workshops, two jobs

A mile apart, either side of the Clwyd — but they are not the same workshop. Pick the one that does the work you need, and if you are not sure, ring either branch and we will point you at the right one.
