Plumber Finds Woman's Diamond In The Rough
Jackhammer Needed To Recover Jewelry

PHOENIX -- It's not everyday you flush a $78,000 engagement ring down the toilet, but that's just what happened to a Eureka, Calif., woman recently.

Allison Berry lost the ring in a Phoenix restaurant. The manager said it just plopped in the water and was whisked away. City workers opened up a pipe outside the Black Bear Diner in hopes it would reappear by flushing, but it wasn't to be. And a plumber from Mr. Rooter was called in to fish the rock out.

"Everybody said, 'No, it's gone,'" said Mike Roberts, general manager of Mr. Rooter. "We figured we'd give it a shot. We'd either save the day or be completely disappointed."

Roberts got the call from city workers who had already spent hours and hundreds of flushes trying to find the 7-carat diamond ring.

"To my amazement, the husband was cool," Roberts said. "I would have been irate and mad."

The plumber guided a tiny video camera into the pipe and eventually spotted the ring just three feet down and five feet over from where it had been flushed. It took an hour and a half of jackhammering and pipe removal to get it out.

Plumber Mike Roberts said Berry was so excited to get the ring Back that she had tears in her eyes.

The bill for Mr. Rooter and the city came to $6,200. Berry and her fiance also gave everybody who helped a nice tip.

“They managed to dig a hole in my floor and get it out of the pipe," said Cheryl Jones of the Black Bear Diner. "(The ring had) a huge solitaire diamond and tons of smaller diamonds encrusted in it. It was very beautiful."

Roberts said he has some advice to the happy couple.

"They should tie a leader from the ring to her belt loop in case it ever falls off again," he said.
