Should they have detected and repaired timing belt gasket at the time of water pump replacement? Would this have saved me labor charges if they were both repaired at the same time? Thanks!

Water pump was recently replaced at local repair shop. Wife drove car for only a day and was losing coolant again. Now the shop says timing belt cover gasket is leaking, with lots of labor $ to replace.
