Normally I'd get a few calls a day, yesterday counted 28 calls the ones I answered were mostly boiler breakdowns/frozen pipes and wanted a plumber asap. I've got a cold and diary is full anyway.
Just amazing once the big guys can't cope the spill over makes you realise how much work there is out there.
 
Mine go's on silent when I get home, unfortunley I do have a life outside work only so much you can do, and I don't want the stress or Hassel so off go's the phone, Its my time now leave a message will call you back tomorrow
 
didnt even bother today, parts shop has no parts in, almost crashed a few times yesterday, its not worth it, got a few people going.. done my bit..
 
Work phone turns off at 6 at night and all weekend. Powers back up when the alarm goes off. I don't advertise 24/7, well don't advertise anyway.
 
I just left my phone on silent on top of the fire last couple days.
It went absolutely mental.
Went through it yesterday just deleting endless boiler issues
 
I'm not GSR but I got 6 boiler calls Friday, 3 yesterday and 2 today.
Did 3 burst pipes yesterday, 1 in an eaves, other 2 outside taps.
Friday I did 1 burst pipe for an old dear but refused anything else as had too much work on.
Could have made a bleedin fortune these last few days if I wasn't so lazy, still more than doubled my normal weekly take home thanks to the beast.
 
Customer with a burst Hep fitting in loft while on holiday, water was coming out of the wall cavity drains on 1st floor and then froze again, water out of front door.
