According to the Alliance for Water Efficiency, residential plumbing loses between 2,000 to nearly 20,000 gallons of water each year because of leaks. While dripping faucets and leaky water heaters aren’t difficult to find, other leaks in the toilet flapper valves or cracked water supply lines may get worse before it’s finally noticed.
Even relatively minor leaks are costly. You’re paying for wasted water, and leaks are capable of damaging walls, flooring and other structural elements of the property. That’s why we try and seal every leak as soon as we can, no matter how unimportant they might seem.

You can’t always avoid leaks entirely, but there are ways to minimize risk. Seals and valves are a common source of leaks, so performing routine maintenance can minimize the risk. Letting professional plumbers handle projects like repair and repiping will also ensure the entire system is as tightly sealed as possible.
A diagnostic fee, also known as a service call fee, is a typical charge levied by HVAC companies when a technician is sent out to your home to diagnose any and all problems with your furnace or air conditioner. A diagnostic fee covers the technician’s time, experience and travel costs associated with determining the underlying cause of the problem. It’s basically a service fee for the technician’s professional evaluation to find the cause of the malfunction.
Think of it like visiting your doctor. They need to do some preliminary tests or an examination to learn more about what’s wrong before proposing treatment. In the same way, the HVAC technician must examine your system to determine the needed repairs or maintenance.
