My wife was cleaning our bathroom and when she was deep cleaning the toilet, flushed it before realizing her wedding ring had fallen off her hand. Besides removing the toilet and checking the trap and wax ring area what other options do i have??

sorry forgot to add its on septic and NOT sewer

Jareds.

Sad news. Gonna have to pull it at least but I wouldn't get my hopes up. If your on a tank system most likely there

What topcat said. Longshot suggestion here, your home owners insurance may cover it, but most likely will not. It still wont hurt to call.

Septic tank or city sewer? Septic tank it’s still close by? Don’t run any other water which feeds into that pipe? City sewer it may still be in the pipe same advice don’t run any water in the pipes? ?? Just what I can think of.???

Yup u could camera it and hopefully it’s in the pipe somewhere , 1 bath or another toilet flush I’m afraid it’s gone forever

Unfortunately- it is gone to the sewer/septic.

There is not a trap on the line leaving the toilet - it is built-in to the toilet. IF you are exceptionally lucky - it is still in the bowl. You can try to take the bowl off and shake it - but, I’m afraid it is gone.

its on septic tank so if not in the bowl then hopefully in the line or tank.

Here ya go. I remembered seeing this on the news , all may not be lost .
There's also how to videos on Youtube about retrieve a ring from a toilet .

Also it's worth a Google , lots of info about retrieving flushed rings and such out there.

Option 1 pull toilet or call a plumber and see if they have a camera
Option 2 if not in toilet call the local turd wrestlers and pump the tank
Option 3 go get another ring

Depending on how your septic is routed it may be in the pipe or the box before the septic tank. There's usually a port on the line between the house and the box or septic tank, too. You can disconnect and flush to get it out.

I didn't know the box before the septic tank existed before I had work done. Digging up the box, if you do have one on your system, is a several hundred dollar bill.

This crap, ha ha, adds up fast. A ring upgrade may be the thing.

One thing is for certain...women will get you in some sh1t.

Man I hate that. I bet she is distraught.

This is a shitty situation

Pump the tank. Tell pumper truck to take to a local wastewater plant and you follow them there. The septic will be filtered out through a screen which you would have to go through all the screenings. You could possible find it or it will settle out right before the screen at the wastewater plant and likely not find it at that point. That is my best thought.

Diamonds direct.

Serious question……let’s say by some miracle you find it after having the tank pumped. Would she even wear it again after knowing where it’s been?

100% she would

Welp, then you know what you gotta do

Ask a reputable septic guy for advice. Never know they may have faced the situation before. Maybe they can pull the lid and use a gold-tuned metal detector. Pump the liquid then shovel full by shovel full “screen” for treasure
