Tree on the house. Limb on the service line. Driveway blocked. These are the calls where speed matters more than price — and they go to whoever picks up.
Emergency work commands the best rates in the trade — when the calls are real. We filter hard so 2 a.m. only rings for a reason.
Nobody comparison-shops with an oak on the roof. Emergency rates reflect the risk, the hour, and the response — as they should.
Take emergency calls around the clock or only when a crew is on. Turn the lead type on and off to match your capacity.
An emergency caller isn’t gathering three bids. If you answer and can roll a truck, the job is yours.
“Storm came through in April and my phone didn’t stop. Every call was mine alone — nobody else bidding against me.”
Most partners start with one or two lead types and turn on more as crews free up.
