When the problem can't wait for a form

Swift Plumbing runs on two very different kinds of customer: someone scheduling a water heater install next month, and someone standing in an inch of water right now. The old site, another copy of the same reseller template running across three unrelated trades in the area, treated both the same way — one generic form, one generic response time.

For a plumber, that's a real cost. A homeowner with a burst pipe isn't going to fill out a form and wait; they're going to call whoever answers first, and if the site doesn't make the phone number impossible to miss, that's a lost job in the first ten seconds.

The site also gave no sense of coverage — nothing telling a customer in an outer neighbourhood whether Swift would even come out, which mattered for a business trying to grow past its original few streets.

A callback-tracking number on the emergency page so Swift can see, for the first time, how many jobs the site itself is generating versus word of mouth.
