Cost For My Service

Reward-Based Recovery Service

I offer my recovery services on a traditional reward basis. There is no predetermined recovery fee—you decide what you can reasonably afford and what the successful recovery of your lost item is worth to you.

My goal is simple: to provide experienced, professional help when you've lost something important, without adding unnecessary pressure to an already stressful situation.

Travel & Incidental Expenses

Depending on the location of the search, reasonable travel or incidental expenses may apply, including mileage, tolls, parking, or other necessary costs. Any applicable expenses will always be discussed and agreed upon before I travel or begin the search.

No Surprises

Clear communication is important. Before making arrangements, we'll discuss the circumstances of your loss, the search location, and any anticipated expenses so you know what to expect.

If you've lost a wedding ring, engagement ring, family heirloom, or another treasured item, contact me as soon as possible. I'll be happy to discuss the situation and determine how I can help.

Search Types

Land, Beach, Ocean & Shallow Water Searches

Professional metal detecting and recovery services are available for land, beaches, Gulf shorelines, and shallow-water locations throughout Southwest Florida.

Search areas may include residential yards, parks, beaches, dry and wet sand, surf zones, swimming areas, canals, lakes, and other coastal or inland locations where rings, jewelry, keys, or other valuable and sentimental items may have been lost.

Boat Access for Remote Search Locations

I also own and operate my own boat, providing the ability to reach locations that may be difficult or impossible to access from land. This expands my search capabilities to include remote beaches, islands, sandbars, coastal waterways, docks, boating areas, and other hard-to-reach locations along Southwest Florida's Gulf Coast.

Search Locations

Vanderbilt Beach to Fort Myers & Beyond

I provide professional lost ring, jewelry, and valuable-item recovery services throughout Southwest Florida, with a primary focus on Vanderbilt Beach, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs, Barefoot Beach, Estero, Lovers Key, Fort Myers Beach, Fort Myers, and surrounding coastal communities.

My search areas include Gulf beaches, ocean shorelines, surf and shallow water, residential yards, parks, lakes, canals, and other accessible land and water locations.

Sean Alexander's Bio

“Lost Ring & Jewelry Recovery in South Florida”

For the past six years, I have spent thousands of hours metal detecting and searching the beaches, coastal waters, and inland waterways of South Florida. Much of that time has been focused specifically on locating lost rings, jewelry, and other valuable or sentimental items.

I have successfully recovered lost items from a variety of environments, including beaches, shallow water, coastal waterways, residential properties, yards, parks, and other challenging locations. Whenever possible, one of the most rewarding parts of a successful recovery is being able to return a lost item to its owner.

As a member of The Ring Finders, I understand that when someone contacts me, they are often searching for much more than a piece of jewelry. A wedding ring, engagement ring, family heirloom, or other personal item may carry memories and sentimental value that simply cannot be replaced.

I use professional-grade metal detecting equipment designed for both land and water searches, and I spend considerable time training with that equipment and refining my search techniques. Knowing how to properly search an area—and understanding how an item may have traveled after it was lost—can make the difference between simply swinging a metal detector and conducting an organized recovery search.

Whether you've lost a ring in the ocean, along the shoreline, in an inland waterway, or somewhere around your home or property, contact me as soon as possible. The sooner I know where and how the item was lost, the better we can preserve the search area and improve the chances of a successful recovery.

“What to Do Right Now”

Stop searching; if possible, mark the location, take photos of the area, and contact Sean before the search area changes.
