Ask what has happened, whether the site is safe, and what immediate action is needed. State any after-hours or priority fee and clarify that urgent attendance does not guarantee the full repair can be completed that day. Identify materials or follow-up work that may require another visit.

Confirm that the job is genuinely urgent, whether you can respond safely, and what normal work must be rescheduled. Explain any different call-out or after-hours basis before dispatch and get approval. Do not let urgency pressure a customer into an unclear price or unsafe shortcut. Record the diagnosis and any temporary measure, then explain what follow-up inspection or permanent repair is still required.

Confirm the location and whether the condition needs emergency help before accepting same-day work. Set a realistic arrival window and say what can be assessed on the first visit. If you cannot respond, tell the customer quickly so they can contact someone else.

Do not accept work beyond safe capacity. State your real emergency availability on your KobStore page; create a service listing and avoid implying 24-hour response if you do not offer it.
