Late last night I received a text message for help in regards to lost gold ring.  He said he was inside his vehicle, opened his window and was wiping the snow away when his ring came flying off his finger. I quickly phoned the young man and got more details and we decided to meet early next morning as it was snowing pretty hard that night.  When I woke up, I was surprised to see how much it did snow but I shovelled myself out and managed to get there on time. After close to an hour-plus of grid searching in the area that Colin believed his ring would be, I ended up finding it directly behind his truck and closer to the road where someone could’ve easily driven over it and it could’ve gotten caught in a tire and driven away.

This search was similar to a recent recovery where a young man was in his truck and the same thing happened,  I found that ring behind the truck as well and not beside it where he also thought it would be found. It’s all about the flick factor! It was nice find that beautiful ring and get it back where it belongs!

I received a phone call yesterday in regards to a lost diamond ring, we talked for a little bit on the phone and I asked a few questions and the young lady was honest enough to tell me she got mad and threw the rings out the front door. These are never moments you’re proud of, but they happen more than you know and the most important thing is finding that ring and getting it back to them. We met up this morning and she showed me the areas where the rings were thrown. She told me husband found the other rings and earrings, but could not find the engagement ring, there was snow on the driveway at the time that was shovelled off to the side, that was a possibility, also a hedge in front of their front door that she threw them in the first time, but he found all of them so he thought.

I searched all along the side of the driveway in case it got shovelled off to the side, but no luck. I then took it to the hot spot, the hedge in front of the door, and within 45 minutes of detecting and moving all the dirt from underneath the hedge onto a piece of plastic I was able to locate the Beautiful diamond engagement ring. I could tell how much it meant to her to get it back and how happy she was, I absolutely love my job.

This was not a Christmas day recovery this was a few days earlier but I was so busy I forgot to post this one. If these two young ladies don’t make you tear up when they see their lost ring I don’t think anything will. I received a text message for help but unfortunately it was the morning we got close to 2 feet of snow overnight and I spent close to five hours shovelling the neighbourhood walkways and digging myself out. I felt it wasn’t a good idea to try and get there that day, so we arranged another time which would be the following day.

When I arrived and met the young lady and her mother, they told me the story and how she lost it, in my mind, I felt I’d be able to pull this one quite easily, but you just never know until you to get there and perform the search.

This ring meant so much to the young lady as it was her late father’s gold melted into a ring specially for her. Just tell how devastated her and her mother were about losing this ring.

Fortunately, this search did not take too long and I was able to find her late fathers beautiful, gold ring, and see both of their smiles!

It’s been a cold couple of weeks with with a lot of snow and more to come with a warm front and lots of rain on the way… I got a call from a young man who asked if I could help him find his white gold ring that his father gave him. I asked him where he believed he lost the ring, he told me he was blowing snow to clear walkways at his workplace, he believed the ring came off when he took off his gloves. After asking a few more questions, he said there could be a couple of areas that I’d have to check but he was confident it was in the area he showed me first.

I started my search and after 30 minutes I could not find the ring. I started expanding my search area and found it 15 yards away from where he thought it would’ve been and where he had searched for it.  It’s amazing how far these rings can fly…For me it’s all about asking the questions and the detective work that follows. Yes some searches are easier than others for me but there has been a lot of my customers that have rented or bought detectors that couldn’t find it themselves then I come in and find it in minutes…That being said I have over 50 years of experience and I look forward to helping anyone who needs something found.

Can you find a lost ring in snow, New Westminster.

Well, it was a big snowfall and the phone was ringing, I was successful on most callouts, but two fell short of success. This happens for reasons unknown, one person may have lost it sooner than he thought, it likely could have been lost in three or four different locations during the day. The other person felt the ring come off when they threw a snowball, unfortunately I couldn’t get there right away because the roads were hazardous. I had to wait a day and they had shovelled away the snow. I checked for three hours, but did not find it anywhere sadly.

A young man in New Westminster who lost his ring at the workplace in the back alley, he’s wiping snow off his pants before getting into the vehicle. This young man was only married three months, he told me it was a beautiful white gold with small diamonds 3/4 away around the band. He was pretty devastated, but I had a good feeling we’d be able to pull this one, after 20 minutes of searching I managed to find his beautiful ring and get it back to him. Unfortunately, he did not want his picture taken, I respect that, as some people just don’t want to be on the Internet. So the picture of the guy in this photo is me with my smile as it makes me just as happy for me to find the ring as it does for the people who get them back…

We got 2 feet of snow overnight in Vancouver, which is very unusual for us out here. It was very pretty but at the same time pretty dangerous to get out and drive around and get things done. I woke up in the morning to three text messages for help in regards to finding lost rings. I had to put it on hold for a day because it took close to five hours to dig out from the snow and I wasn’t going to risk driving that day.  I felt it would be better to wait to the next day to see how the roads were and if they were a little better.  I was able to get out to my first search the next day which was for a ladies emerald and diamond ring that was lost in the snow while she was scraping ice and snow from her vehicle.

When I met and we talked she wasn’t 100% sure it was lost by her SUV cause she didn’t feel it come off.  I am always happy to come and give people closure to make sure it’s not sitting there for someone to find when the snow melts, or the ring getting stuck in a truck tire in driven away. I started the search where they had to shovel the snow to the side from the road but nothing, I asked if she could move her vehicle and she did, and lo and behold. I found it by the back rear tire area.

I received my second call of the day to search for a lost platinum wedding band at a school filled where this young man was sliding down the hill with his kids on a magic carpet. Isn’t quite sure the exact location when the rain came off his finger but he was pretty certain it had to of happened while he was there playing with his kids.

When I arrived, I could see somebody in the area with what look like a Metal Detector and a headlight as it was dark out, turned out it was one of his friends who Jimmy rigged a metal detector with the use of a pin pointer, very difficult but what a great effort and what a great friend to be out there in the dark&  cold, looking for hissing.

I took over the search and while I set my grid, we both started talking about the World Cup game turned out. He was a former goalkeeper like me who tried out for the Canadian national team back in the day. He still plays  soccer,  after about one hour of searching I did find his beautiful platinum wedding band. Tell he was pretty happy as he knew it would make his wife happy to know. He’s got it back where it belongs..

I received a text message from a young lady who was asking for help to find her lost diamond engagement ring in the snow. I called her right away and got the details, set up a time, and went out immediately to help her find her engagement ring. When I met Via show me the approximate area that she remembered shaking her hands because they were cold and wet. Snow searches, if people know where they’ve lost their ring it don’t usually take too much time to find.

It’s just getting into the area where they believe it came off. This search took all of five minutes, Via put me in a great area and I was able to find her smile pretty quickly. I heard later that she got married in September and her husband was out of town and he was the one in India who found TheRingFinders website and sent the link to his wife. The rest is history.

Lost gold ring at a Christmas tree farm in Langley

I received a text message yesterday evening in regards to lost gold and diamond ring. This was a young ladies wedding band, she went on to tell me the story of the ring and how important it was to her and how sad she was that she had lost it. The good news was she was most certain it was lost at a Christmas tree farm in Langley. The story of the ring as it was a gift from her late father to give to her daughter one day, these stories always pulls at the heart strings.

We set up a time to meet in the morning, the owners were so kind to let us go in and do the search, after meeting the young couple, and hearing their story about where they believe the ring was lost and for the fact that husband pinned the location where they cut the tree down and where they believed the ring may have come off her finger ,that was such a blessing he marked the location!

Most times people forget the most important things and that’s a landmark or in this situation, pinning the location so that he could get back to it. Let’s face it there’s a lot of trees there and it would be so difficult to find the exact location which is so important when you’re looking for something that small. After a short time searching the ring was found under a Christmas tree, it was a good thing that nobody had cut that one down because they would’ve easily seen the ring laying underneath it.

So many factors play in these searches, and one is asking the right questions in order to get into the area and after listening carefully to her story there was two locations I was very interested in and I started in the one I felt I had the best chance… It only took minutes to find her ring & smile.

It was our first big snowfall of the year and it’s not surprising to get calls soon after, I received a text message from Mike asking for help to find his platinum wedding band, I called right away to discuss the search and set up a time within the next couple of hours to meet up and help him to find his ring. Mike told me he knew the specific area where he believed he felt his ring come off his finger, in my mind I knew this could probably be a quick search, but I have been surprised in the past thinking that way and it turns out to be the exact opposite.

The roads were clear and good, and I made it there pretty quickly and met up with Mike. He showed me the exact area where he believed it could’ve come off, I turn on my machine and to both of our surprise I didn’t find the ring where he felt it would be?

As always, I expended my search, knocked off the snow from the hedge and detected underneath still no signal, I then put the machine over top of the hedge and received a nice strong signal…The Ring!!!

Murphy’s Law it’s going to be not exactly where you think it will be… I know Mike was surprised that I did not find it near the reindeer, but I also knew if it was there I would find it, it’s just a process, sometimes you can walk in and come out quickly with the recovery, other times it can take longer this search took all of maybe 20 minutes. I love what I do. It makes me so happy to see how it affects a strangers life in such a beautiful and positive way…
