Expert File Retrieval and Confidential Service

Some shops rely on basic software that can actually worsen a failing drive, Sergey uses professional hardware-level tools to maximize recovery chances. Sergey personally manages the entire process to ensure your sensitive business data or personal memories never leave our secure workshop.

With over 10 years of experience, he can often recover data that other technicians deem “unfixable” due to complex hardware failure. Ultimately, we provide an honest, local service in Clayfield that gives you the best possible chance of getting your digital life back without the massive costs of a forensic lab.

Our Recovery Process

A straightforward process, explained upfront.

STEP 1
Bring it in & Assessment

Visit our Clayfield workshop for a professional assessment. Sergey performs a sector-by-sector image to capture all accessible data safely while identifying the physical state of your media.

STEP 2
Technical Retrieval

We use specialized hardware tools to bypass physical errors and extract your files. Because we prioritize your privacy, all work is performed with strict confidentiality.

STEP 3
Verification & Transfer

We verify the integrity of the recovered documents to ensure they are readable. We then transfer the healthy data to a new drive so you can resume your work.

Note on Same-Day Service: We offer priority repairs based on current workload and parts. If you need it done today, please mention it when you arrive so we can check if same-day service is realistic for your specific device.
