Emergency call out in Exmouth

### When Things Go Wrong At The Worst Time

**Pipes burst. Locks break. Things go wrong** - usually at weekends or when you're least prepared for it.

You need someone who'll actually turn up quickly and fix the immediate problem, not give you an appointment for next week.

> 💡 **Pro tip:** Don't wait for a crisis. Save my number now - when you're panicking at 8pm on Saturday because water's pouring through your ceiling, you don't want to be Googling for help.

### What Actually Qualifies As Emergency

| ✅ Genuine Emergency | ❌ Not An Emergency | |---------------------|-------------------| | Burst pipe flooding your home | Dripping tap you've ignored for months | | Door won't lock after break-in | Stiff door lock | | Major leak coming through ceiling | Small persistent leak (call normal hours) | | Lost heating in freezing weather | Radiator slightly warm | | Window smashed, can't secure | Blind won't stay up | | Boiler leaking all over floor | Boiler making funny noise |

**If it's causing active damage, is a security risk, or makes your home unlivable → Emergency**

**If it's just inconvenient but can wait until Monday → Normal booking**
