Default coolant leak

i got my plugs changed and tb cleaned, now they tell me i have a coolant leak which i already knew about. they told me it is not that bad, and its the beginning stages, but i have been filling my coolant every couple of days for the past week or so, what should i expect to pay for the fix?

can you tell by looking yourself?
look at the weep hole on the water pump, look at the overflow from the reservior, look at your lower intake gasket, radiator corners, coolant hoses, and so on.
