We can usually help when…

You deleted or formatted files you needed
The drive clicks, beeps or isn’t recognised
Windows asks to "format the disk" before you can open it
The computer won’t boot but the files are still on it
A USB stick or SD card suddenly reads as empty
An external drive was dropped and stopped working

The straight answer first

The single most important thing when you lose data: stop using the device. Every time a failing drive is powered on or written to, the chance of a clean recovery drops. Power it down and bring it in.

We handle logical failures (deletion, formatting, corruption) in-house. For drives with severe physical or mechanical damage that need a certified cleanroom, we’ll tell you honestly and coordinate the right specialist rather than risk your data.

How it works

Simple, honest, and you approve the price before any work begins.

Free evaluation

We assess the drive, tell you whether the data is recoverable, and give you a clear price before any recovery work starts — no surprises.

Safe recovery

We image and recover from the failing media using methods that avoid writing to it, giving your files the best chance of coming back intact.

Verified handover

We return your recovered files on a fresh drive or your choice of media, and can set up a backup so it never happens again.

Frequently asked questions

How much does data recovery cost?
Standard recovery starts at $79.99 and depends on the type of failure and how much work it takes. We evaluate the drive and give you a firm price first — you decide before we proceed.
Can you recover deleted or formatted files?
Very often, yes — as long as the space hasn’t been overwritten. That’s why it’s critical to stop using the drive the moment you realise files are missing and bring it to us.
My hard drive is clicking — what should I do?
Turn it off immediately and don’t try recovery software. Clicking usually means a mechanical problem, and repeated power-ons make it worse. Bring it in and we’ll evaluate it safely.
Is my data kept private?
Always. Your files are handled confidentially, accessed only as needed to complete the recovery, and never shared. We can securely wipe the source media afterward on request.
What if the data can’t be recovered?
We tell you before charging for recovery. If a case turns out to be unrecoverable by us, you’re not paying for files you never got back — that’s our no-fix, no-fee promise.
