Default HELP.....metal detector guy needed

I need to find the 2 survey pins in my back yard....I want to expand my gardens but I need to stay within my lot lines....

I have a survey but I just need a guy with a metal detector to pin point the survey pins.........it's a 10 minute job.......

I'll pay a reasonable fee if that is what it takes...( I'm in Dunedin)

Do you know someone who could help me out???

Please advise !

thanks

There is a metal detector club, and there have been several previous threads on this subject with the contact info for the club and the members that provide this service.

Are you sure they are metal and not concrete? If you have a detailed survey plat, you may be able to locate the corner markers by measuring.

Don't be surprised if you don't find them. I have personally witnessed laborers removing them and tossing them in a dumpster when laying sod.
