The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP 925-580-2590
I was cooking Saturday morning breakfast for the family when Eric called. His wife was assisting with setting up soccer goals for an early game and lost her Platinum and Diamond wedding band somewhere amongst the grass. They looked for quite some time and even enlisted the help of others at the field. At one point there was a cheap child’s metal detector deployed, but with low batteries and an abundance of “beeps” it produced more frustration than results.
I was keen to the task, but schedules meant the ring would overnight there until the following Morning when I could get an early jump on it. When I arrived, it was just before sunrise and it was shaping up to be a gorgeous day. The nicely groomed fields were wet from overnight fog which played a nice roll in my grid searches. I noticed that as I swung from side to side, if I brushed the top of the grass it would change the color and I knew exactly what I had covered and where I had not.
The field was large, but Eric had met me there and showed me the target areas for our search. It was still a large enough area to take some time and after I cleared one of the target areas we moved off to the next. The field was trashy with a lot of deeper targets but I did locate a few odds and ends. Then after 20 minutes or so in the new location…We made the recovery! Tucked out of sight in the green grass the small wedding band came into view and Eric confirmed it to be our target. We took a few photos and a video and the mission was happily accomplished.
Thank you Eric for your feedback and in trusting me with your wife’s ring. I wish you all both the very best and hope you tell the story of the once missing ring far and wide.

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!
Thank you Eric! It was a pleasure to help you locate the ring and in getting the puppies steps in for the day! Cheers!
