According to the Alliance for Water Efficiency, an average home 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 can go undiscovered for a long time.
Even minor water leaks can be costly. You’re paying for wasted water, and leaks can wreak havoc on walls, flooring and other structural elements of the property. That’s why it’s still important to find and fix leaks, no matter how small they may seem.

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 standard charge levied by HVAC companies once someone is dispatched to your home to diagnose the issue plaguing your heating or cooling system. A diagnostic fee covers the technician’s time, expertise and travel expenses associated with assessing the problem. It’s essentially a service fee for the technician’s professional assessment to pinpoint what went wrong.
Think of it like a doctor’s appointment. They need to examine you to help figure out what’s wrong before recommending treatment. Similarly, your HVAC professional needs to diagnose your HVAC equipment to determine the repair or maintenance course of action.
