Autoscreens has always been a family business, built on skill, trust and a strong work ethic passed down through generations. This year marks an exciting new chapter, with Ethan Squire officially joining the Autoscreens team as a trainee windscreen fitter, working alongside his dad Jason and older brother Xavier.
For customers, this means the same reliable, high-quality service Autoscreens has been known for since 2010, with a strong focus on the future.
A family business built on experience
Established in Perth, Western Australia by Jason Squire in 2010, Autoscreens has grown into one of WA’s most trusted windscreen replacement and auto glass repair businesses. Between Jason and Xavier alone, the team brings more than 40 years of combined industry experience to every job.
From private vehicles to commercial fleets, Autoscreens services the Perth CBD and surrounding suburbs including Joondalup, Wanneroo and Midland, offering a fully mobile service backed by cutting-edge glass technology and dependable customer care.
That commitment has seen Autoscreens become the preferred windscreen provider for multiple local government fleets, as well as a trusted partner for accident repair centres, dealerships and mining companies across Western Australia.
Learning the trade the right way
Ethan joined the business in June 2025, stepping into a trainee technician role where he is learning the trade hands-on, directly alongside his father and brother.
“It’s been great learning the trade alongside my dad and brother,” Ethan said. “I’m proud to be part of the family business and excited to keep building my skills with Autoscreens.”
Training within a family-run operation means Ethan is being taught not only the technical skills required for windscreen replacement and repair, but also the values Autoscreens is known for. These include attention to detail, safety, customer satisfaction and pride in workmanship.
This approach ensures every Autoscreens technician, now and into the future, meets the same high standards customers have come to expect.
Strengthening the Autoscreens legacy
With Jason leading as Master Technician, Xavier bringing technical expertise alongside a strong focus on customer service and marketing, and Ethan beginning his journey in the trade, Autoscreens continues to grow while staying true to its roots.
Behind the scenes, Dawn Squire, Office Manager since the business opened, keeps everything running smoothly. It is a reminder that Autoscreens has always been, and remains, a true family effort.
Welcoming Ethan to the team is more than a staffing update. It reflects Autoscreens’ commitment to longevity, skill development and delivering dependable windscreen services for Western Australians, now and for years to come.
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.
