Usually when a service is unavailable it would result in HTTP response code 503.
You can use this to write specific logic to show a user-friendly message on the UI.

if(((System.Net.HttpWebResponse)((System.Net.WebException)ex.InnerException).Response).StatusDescription == "Not Found")
{

    Response.Write("<script>alert(' Service is down...Please try after sometimes');</script>");
    ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "alertMessage", "alert('Record Inserted Successfully')", true);
}
