Lost your ring, other valuable jewelry, cellphone, keys, or other metal object…call or text Brian Carpenter at (814)244-2300 as soon as possible. I am a ring recovery specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…
I received a text from Mike who stated he had been cleaning his gutters and thought that he lost his wedding ring when tossing the debris in his yard. We talked and I made arrangements to head out and search the area. Upon arrival we talked and he was not sure if it would be in the front or back and also that he had cut the grass and mulched up the debris from the gutters. That concerned me because I thought that the ring could have been launched by the mower however he said that he did not have the side chute open. I felt a little better that it might be in yard. He also said he ran down to the store and bought a cheap metal detector but was unable to find his ring. I told him that was actually pretty common and I was glad he called me. He said the ring was tungsten.
I started my search and about a third of the way through the front yard I got a good hit. I parted the grass and there was his ring – sweet! Then when I pulled it out I realized it was only part of the ring. I asked Mike if that was it and he said yes. I felt bad that it was only half. He was good with knowing what happened and having half the ring back. I checked the remainder of the yard and was unable to locate the other half. He informed me that he wears tungsten because of work and that it was supposed to break under pressure so he understood. I had never heard that before and would not recommend testing that theory. However, he was very glad to have closure and said he would try to grind the edges and have it put on a chain. This was the first time I have only recovered a part of a ring. While I was bummed that it had broke I was glad to have saved a piece of his original ring and that he was planning on modifying it so he could continue to wear it. As always – it was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client.

I can’t thank you enough for coming out and helping me find my ring and for making arrangements so quickly. Finding only half wasn’t the ending of the story that either of us wanted but I’m happy to have a piece of the ring I was married with. It was an absolute pleasure to meet you and see you in action. You’re incredible at what you do and the services you provide to help complete strangers goes to show how kind and selfless you are. Thanks again, Brian.
