You shouldn’t ignore a chip or crack in your vehicle’s windscreen – even if you think it’s tiny and insignificant.
That’s because any damage to the glass could compromise the safety features and structural integrity of your windscreen, putting you, your passengers and other road users at risk.
As dramatic as that sounds – it’s true and you need to take corrective action as soon as possible after the damage has been done.
Luckily, mobile windscreen repairs take all the hassle away and make it possible for your windscreen to be restored as good as new without any inconvenience to you.
Here are three top benefits of mobile windscreen repairs:
You save time
Everyone’s busy and when things go wrong, it’s not always easy finding time to sort the problem out. With mobile windscreen repairs, the solution comes to you – when you want it and where you want it. No more wasted hours driving to the repairer and waiting for the job to be done – you can spend your precious time on things that are more important to you.
You get an immediate solution
Everyone knows that mobile windscreen repairs are a fast and convenient option – but one of the most important advantages is that they provide an immediate solution to what is a very real danger. Driving with a damaged windscreen is more dangerous than many people realise so when there’s an option to fix the problem immediately, you should take it.
Mobile windscreen repairers come to the location of your choice – so you’re free to carry on with your life as normal while the professionals get on with the job. Because the job can be done at your designated site, there’s no need to put yourself or others at risk by putting off the repair until you find a suitable time and location. Immediate repair means an immediate safety solution, which is the best outcome for everyone.
You save money
Time is money, so you will save by not having to drive to an autoglass repairer and waiting idly while the job is being completed. But more importantly, if you take advantage of a mobile windscreen repairer as soon as you notice that there’s a crack or chip in the glass, it’ll be a simple job to fix and you could be avoiding a more costly repair job further down the line.
Cracks and chips can spread quickly as a result of moisture, dirt, fluctuations in temperature and driving on bumpy roads and you could be faced with the possibility of a full windscreen replacement if the problem isn’t sorted out early.
Many mobile windscreen repairers also work outside normal operating hours, so you get the added advantage of flexibility. What’s more, if the vehicle that’s in need of repair is used for work purposes, a mobile repairer can have the damage fixed up in an hour or so, so the vehicle won’t need to be out of commission for very long.

Jason Squire started Autoscreens in 2010. With over 35 years of experience gained in both the UK and Australia, the company is well established as a leading provider of windscreen replacement and autoglass repairs in Perth.
His journey to becoming a certified repairer license holder status with DMIRS (and business repair license MRB3703) began many years ago. He was born and brought up in the UK – the country where his long career in the automotive industry began. In common with many of the world’s best tradespeople it all started with an apprenticeship. For Jason, this was in vehicle bodybuilding and a specialisation in vehicle conversions.
He followed that up with several additional professional qualifications, including a Grade A Vehicle Body Building Certificate from the Road Transport Industry, a GQA level 2 in NVQ Automotive Glazing and a Level 2 qualification in Joining Materials by Welding from the UK Engineer Training Authority.
During his studies, Jason was also a part-time volunteer in the Royals signals with the Reserve Territorial Army. Between 1991 and 1995, Jason completed his Phase One Signallers Course with the Royal Armoured Corps and was awarded a Certificate of Trade Proficiency as a Territorial Army Driver Electrician Class 3. Training exercises took him all over Europe. He also represented the Signals in Rugby.
From there, he joined the armed forces on a full-time basis with the Queens Royal Lancers and continued to impress with his leadership skills and willingness to broaden his skillset, during which he lived in Germany. In 1996, he graduated from the Queens Royal Lancer Leadership Academy where he was named best recruit. His time with the Queens Royal Lancers he qualified as Tank Driver, Crew Medic and Gunner.
In 1999, Jason left the armed forces to join RAC Auto Windscreens. His skillset enabled him to fast-track his career to base supervisor and lead technician working with premiere dealerships in Crewe, Cheshire.
He also continued to volunteer in a number of different areas, including as a first responder with the West Midlands Ambulance Service and a scout leader with the Scout Association.
He relocated to Australia in 2008 with his young family and spent his first two years down under as a head technician for a national windscreen company.
However, with all his experience, extensive qualifications and his abiding passion for the automotive industry, it was inevitable that he would start his own company and make his mark as an industry leader.
He started Autoscreens in 2010 and has grown the business into the leading windscreen repair and replacement company in Perth, servicing both domestic and commercial customers. Autoscreens has a certified Motor Vehicle Repairers Licence MRB3703 issued by the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety.
