Recovery Service

For over 15 years, people have regularly approached us while we detected recreationally, to ask for help finding their lost items. Lost Treasures originally began as a recovery service in 2009, after our owner identified a need for reuniting lost precious items with their owners. Seeing the complete joy on their faces is very rewarding, and we love being able to offer this service.

If you need a lost item recovered, you've come to the right place. Whether it's the ring you lost in the backyard while gardening, or perhaps a necklace you love that came off while swimming - if you've lost it, we'll find it!

We can detect nearly all ground surfaces, and water up to 1.5 metres. We also have access to Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) down to 4.5 metres, Service Locator Sonar down to 6 metres, and scuba is available with notice if you have lost something in water deeper than 1.5 metres.
