Domestic work surge?

Just out of curiosity are other companies getting much more domestic enquires than usual? I started up my own company early last year so I don't yet know what the average work load is for this time of year. When the lockdown was announced I had pretty much wrote this year off and went into survival mode. A few weeks later and the phone is on fire with enquiries. I usually average 10-12 quotes a week, I did over 30 last week. I'm just wandering are other companies busier than usual or am I just in an area with high demand at the moment?

Lots of time wasters, 

In the lock down the phone was going mad, a few polite questions made me realise a majority were either like @treevolution says unaware of the cost or getting everyone in the county to price, 

I don't mind pricing in the lockdown but i don't want to unnecessarily go to peoples houses 

I tend to ask for a photo now using the plague as the excuse so i don't loose a hour looking at £150 jobs which the local builder will do anyway
