Cost For My Service
I work on a predetermined reward amount, that means you pay what it's worth to you and what you can afford for me to come out and find your lost item.
I have a $35 call-out fee whether or not the item is found, this covers my fuel expense, maybe more or less depending on where you are located (call to discuss).
Search Types
Land and shallow water areas.
Search Locations
Will travel to locations within an approximate 40 mile radius of Charlottesville, Virginia.
Mark Smith's Bio
I am a Marine veteran forced into an early retirement by Cancer in 2018. Not being able to work anymore, I took up the hobby of metal detecting to get outside, exercise, and get some fresh air.
After detecting nearly every day since then, I have recovered thousands of items, and gained a fair amount of experience. Now I would like to put my equipment and that knowledge to use helping others to find lost items.
My Cancer treatments have left me with some intermittent speech issues. I can communicate fine, but prefer you contact me by text or email.
