We get it. You’re trying to plan, compare costs, and avoid surprises. So it’s totally fair to ask: “Can you just give me a rough price over the phone?”
We hear this all the time, and we understand why you’re asking. But here’s the thing—when it comes to plumbing, heating, and cooling systems, guessing a price without seeing the issue in person can lead to more frustration (and sometimes more money) in the long run.
Here’s why in-home estimates matter—and why Radiant insists on doing it the right way.
The Guessing Game Doesn’t Work
When you call in, you’re doing your best to describe the issue—but unless you’re a licensed plumber or HVAC technician, chances are you’re only seeing part of the problem. What seems like “just a leak” could be caused by multiple underlying issues. We want to fix the root cause, not just the symptom.
A Picture Isn’t the Full Story
Some customers offer to send a photo. While helpful in theory, a photo can’t show what’s behind a wall, under a floor, or inside a unit. That’s why our licensed technicians bring diagnostic tools and hands-on experience to every appointment—to fully understand what’s going on and build the right solution on the spot.
No Two Homes Are the Same
Every home is unique, and so is every repair. The layout of your property, age of your system, energy source (gas or electric), and access to units all impact the scope of the job. What’s simple in one home might require wall access or rerouting in another.
Pricing Without a Diagnosis? That’s a Risky Game
We know you don’t want sticker shock. And we don’t want to give it to you. Giving a wide range of pricing over the phone is misleading—and we think that’s unfair to you. A clear, transparent quote only comes from seeing the job up close, so we can accurately assess labor, materials, and time.
