I received a request from Joao in Windermere asking for help finding a 14k gold pendant. The small thin pendant had fallen off into heavy St. Augustine grass in his backyard. Although he purchased an inexpensive metal detector from a nearby sporting good store and searched for hours (including a night search), he came up empty-handed. During his search the thin pendant was accidently stepped on and pushed down into the soil. Even though it had become invisible to the naked eye I was able to recover the pendant using a machine designed for that particular type of search.

"Gary is amazing! While my wife was working on our landscaping, her wedding ring unknowingly slipped out of her pocket. After frantically searching for it for a number of hours, we contemplated renting a metal detector to find it but thought it best to leave this to the professionals. Gary was extremely responsive, professional, and located the ring with 5 minutes of searching. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone!"

A client lost her gold and diamond wedding band 30 days prior in a driveway English Ivy garden. An easy recovery proved very difficult due to buried low voltage landscape wiring and concrete rebar. After two days of digging false targets the band was recovered and returned to the excited owner. A big assist by fellow Ring Finder Jim Dardini who was first to identify the correct target.

Nichole called me from Lockhart, Florida, upset that she had lost a very sentimental silver thumb ring. I was able to be on her property within 30 minutes. She pointed out the area in her front yard where she was sure the ring had landed four days prior. However, as with many successful ring recoveries, her ring was found outside of that zone. Many different factors can often confuse and distort the sense of direction. These include, anxiety, emotions, and environmental conditions such as darkness.

I was notified that a neighbor was in need of assistance finding  a small diamond earring on her front lawn. Becky and her family had gridded out the search area but were unable to locate the missing piece of jewelry. By scanning the matching earring with my metal detector I was able to obtain valuable search data. The missing earring was successfully recovered within one hour.

Barbara lost her 18 karat gold earring while walking her dog in  her front yard. She and her family searched for three days before contacting me for help. Many of my successful recoveries occur within an hour or less of searching. This was one of those cases, within 20 minutes of turning on my machine. She was so happy to have her earring back that she said, and I quote...
​ "YOU are the real deal!".

Matt contacted me after his wife lost one of a pair of 14k gold earrings while carrying groceries into the house. He was hoping to surprise her with it when she got home after work. I searched the front yard of his home and in a short time I located it in the grass. This was especially challenging due to the small size of the earring. For me, finding it for him, so that he could give it back to her, was a very rewarding experience.
