Free diagnostic for every Sunbury-on-Thames customer. Fixed quote before any work — no fix, no fee.

// data recovery for sunbury-on-thames

Sunbury-on-Thames runs along the river from the lock and Walled Garden up towards Kempton Park, and its TW16 postcode is a mix of riverside family homes, established small businesses and the offices around Sunbury Cross and the BP campus. The drives we see follow suit: external backups full of years of photos that stopped mounting, a NAS in a home studio that dropped a disk, and — being so close to the water — the occasional drive that's taken a genuine soaking after a flood or a burst pipe.

As a Staines-based, post-in service we don't run a counter you can walk into; instead we bring the lab to you. Your device travels by tracked, insured post or a free courier collection to Guildford Data Recovery, thirty-odd minutes away off the A3, and the free diagnostic begins as soon as it lands. Recovered files come back to you on a fresh encrypted drive by tracked courier.

The terms are the same for every Sunbury job: a free diagnostic, then a single fixed written quote you approve before anything happens. Logical recoveries are no fix, no fee. Water-damaged, dropped and electrically failed drives need clean-room attention and carry a 50% deposit up front — but again, only after you've seen and accepted the price. If a drive has been wet, don't try to dry it out or power it on; seal it in a bag and call us.

// getting your device to us

Post or courier your device from Sunbury-on-Thames — it's simple

Most customers post or courier their media to us.

Sending a drive from a computer, laptop, MacBook, iMac, CCTV / DVR or server? Please remove the internal hard drive or SSD and send us just the drive — we don't provide an internal drive-removal service. We don't recover storage soldered to a motherboard (e.g. Apple Silicon Macs and some thin laptops) — only drives that can be removed and sent to us.

  • Wrap the device in bubble wrap or a padded envelope — no need to include cables or power supplies.
  • Print and enclose the booking-in & shipping form (PDF) with your name, phone number and a brief description of what happened.
  • Send by Royal Mail Special Delivery or any tracked courier for full insurance in transit.
  • Prefer to hand it over in person? You can drop it in at reception at the address shown, Mon–Fri 9:00am–5:30pm.

Common questions

Not necessarily, but don't power it on or try to dry it. Corrosion does the real damage once a wet drive is switched on. Seal it in a food bag, call 0800 689 0668, and send it in — clean-room drying and imaging recover a lot of water-damaged drives.
Either works. We can book a free tracked courier collection from your Sunbury-on-Thames address, or send you instructions to post it Special Delivery. Everything goes to our Guildford send-in lab and is fully insured in transit.
Post or collection reaches the lab the next working day, the free diagnostic follows within 48 hours, and most standard recoveries finish inside a week of your approval. Urgent cases — a business system down, say — can be fast-tracked; just tell us when you call.
