First priority: stop making it worse

Data Recovery

Recovery attempts for deleted files, failing drives, corrupted partitions, and devices that no longer mount — with honest limits about what is possible.

Data loss is time-sensitive, and the most common way data becomes permanently unrecoverable is continued use of the affected device. Stop using it and get in touch. I will assess what happened, tell you honestly what the odds look like, and where a case needs a cleanroom I will say so rather than reduce your chances by attempting it.

What is included

  • Assessment of the failure and a candid recovery outlook before work begins
  • Recovery of accidentally deleted, formatted, or overwritten files
  • Logical recovery from corrupted file systems and partition tables
  • Imaging of failing drives so recovery work never touches the original
  • Recovery from external drives, USB media, memory cards, and NAS volumes
  • A referral to a cleanroom specialist when the failure is physical

This is probably what you need if…

  • Files deleted or a drive formatted by mistake
  • A drive that clicks, is not detected, or mounts and then disappears
  • Photos or documents that exist in only one place
  • A NAS or RAID volume that will no longer come online

Common questions

What should I do right now?

Stop using the device and do not install recovery software onto the affected drive — both reduce what can be recovered. Power it down and contact me.

Can you guarantee my files come back?

No, and nobody honestly can. Outcomes depend on the failure type and what has happened since. You will get a realistic assessment before any work starts, not an optimistic one.

What if the drive has failed mechanically?

Physically failed drives need a cleanroom, which is specialist work. I will identify that during assessment and refer you rather than attempt something that could destroy your remaining chances.
