DATA RECOVERY SERVICES
Important files missing? Let’s protect what’s left.
Family photos, work documents or a drive you can’t open? Get a careful data recovery assessment in Lake Wales, serving customers across Polk County. Tell me what happened before trying more fixes, so we can choose a sensible next step.

A careful assessment. An honest answer.
Losing access to important files can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re unsure whether another repair attempt could make things worse. You don’t need to diagnose the problem before asking for help.
I assess accidental deletion, unreadable storage and other file-access problems to see whether a software-based recovery attempt is appropriate. You’ll work directly with James, with the options and cost discussed before proceeding. Recovery is never guaranteed; some devices need a specialist lab.
Start by stopping.
Stop using the affected device. Don’t install recovery software, save new files or reinstall the operating system on that drive. If it is making unusual noises or has physical damage, power it down and call before trying again.
Deleted or missing files
Deleted documents, missing photos or an accidentally formatted drive may be suitable for a software-based assessment. What happened afterward matters: continued use can overwrite the files you want back.
Tell me when you noticed the loss and whether anything has been saved or installed since.
Drives with read errors
A drive that disconnects, becomes unusually slow or asks to be formatted needs assessment before repeated scans. The cause may be a connection problem, file-system damage or a failing device.
Don’t accept a format prompt when you need the files on that storage.
Specialist recovery
Clicking, grinding, impact or liquid damage can call for a dedicated recovery lab. I don’t open drives or perform cleanroom repairs.
If local software recovery is unsuitable—or the files are irreplaceable—we’ll discuss specialist referral options before an attempt.
The safest next step may be to stop.
A computer repair gets a device working; data recovery focuses on retrieving its files. Reinstalling Windows or macOS, formatting a drive or running repeated repair tools can change the storage you need to preserve.
If your files matter more than getting the computer running today, say so at the start. We’ll discuss the condition of the device, the value of the files and whether a specialist is the better first route.
1. Tell me what disappeared
Describe the device, the files you need and what happened before they became inaccessible. Mention unusual noises, damage and any recovery tools already tried.
2. Agree on the right route
We’ll discuss an assessment, the cost of any proposed attempt and whether specialist recovery is more appropriate. Drop-offs are arranged in advance.
3. Review what was recovered
If files are recovered, we’ll review the results where practical and discuss suitable destination storage. A separate backup plan can help protect them afterward.
Data recovery pricing.
The $120 service is a file-retrieval attempt for a computer that will not start, or files that need recovering when an OS problem cannot be resolved. Recovery is not guaranteed.

Who it’s for
Your computer won’t power on, or a Windows/macOS problem cannot be resolved and your files need retrieving before a reinstall. A computer that won’t start does not always mean its files are lost.
What’s included
The $120 service covers opening the computer and accessing its storage when needed, then attempting to retrieve your files. If an OS repair cannot solve the problem, we’ll discuss this recovery route before proceeding.
Before booking
Recovery is not guaranteed. Damaged or unreadable storage may need a specialist lab; cleanroom recovery is not included. Parts, destination storage and any separate computer repair or OS reinstall are discussed separately.
Before we get started.
What does the $120 service cover?
The $120 data recovery service covers attempting to retrieve files from a computer that won’t turn on, including opening it and accessing its storage when needed. This route may also be necessary if an OS problem cannot be resolved and your files need retrieving before a reinstall.
We’ll discuss the change in scope before proceeding. Recovery depends on the storage’s condition; specialist lab recovery, parts, destination storage and separate repair or reinstall work are discussed separately.
Can you help with backups afterward?
Yes. After the immediate problem is understood, we can discuss a separate backup or transfer plan around your files and devices. Having another working copy is different from keeping everything on one drive.
Is recovery guaranteed?
No. Overwritten data, encryption without the necessary key, and physical damage can limit or prevent recovery. An assessment helps explain the available route; it cannot promise that every file will be recovered.
What should I bring or tell you?
Tell me the device type and which files matter most. Bring the affected storage and any necessary power adapter to an arranged appointment. Mention existing backups and encryption; you can enter passwords or recovery keys yourself when needed.
Let’s find your next step.
Tell me what happened and which files matter most. I’ll explain the available route before you decide how to proceed.
