  • he was professional, honest, and kind...
    testimonial for Brendon Chapman (2025)

    Item

    Brendon is a true treasure hunter! First off, when I called he was professional, honest, and kind. He would not take the location of where we lost the ring over the phone as he wanted me to know he would not violate trust and go behind my back to find the ring. Second, he responded quickly, coming out on a Sunday morning at 7 AM (hour drive for him) to meet me on a cold, wet morning. He was relentless, and 90 minutes in he waved me over, ring in hand. I got home with my wife’s wedding band before she even woke up on that Sunday morning!

    While I hope to never have to call Brendon for this type of need, I have shared his name and story with all my friends and would call him instantly if I ever lost anything. He turned a really horrible weekend into one of fun and celebration!

  • Very grateful for Joe’s service and professionalism...
    testimonial for Joe Au-Franz (2025)

    Item

    Very grateful for Joe’s service and professionalism. After two days diving on my own in rough surf to locate, I knew it was time to bring in the big guns. Joe shared his navy career similar to my dad and I knew he was the right person on site up to the task with 100% recovery. Within five minutes, job well done. Forever grateful. Semper Fortis.

  • Very thankful for your prompt and skill full service.
    testimonial for Pete McGhee (2025)

    Item

    I was indeed very relieved to recover the ring engraved on the inside with our names and the date 7/6/75. Very thankful for your prompt and skill full service.

    Best regards Wayne
