Where we work · Hedge End
Data recovery in Hedge End. School servers, shop back offices, the drive in the loft.
A town since 1992, Hedge End had a population of 20,790 at the 2011 Census. The M27 brought new office parks, out-of-town superstores and new housing with it, and the station on the Eastleigh to Fareham line arrived in the early nineties. What fails here is everyday, and it travels by post.

What turns up from Hedge End.
Not listed? Try the fault finder →| The complaint | Why it happens here | First step |
|---|---|---|
| A retail back-office PC at the end of a long trading day | Tills, inventory and rotas on one machine behind the shop | The disk travels; the counter stays open |
| A school server that won't complete its boot sequence | All the registers, child protection files and student coursework stored in the same room | Bare disks, bay order marked on each |
| An office-park desktop after a power cut | Admin systems that were never duplicated elsewhere | Usually it is the boards that have been damaged |
| A commuter's laptop that took a fall on the platform | Portable devices take more knocks than a fixed device ever could | Quote first, then send the drive on its own |
| Your family external hard disk has stopped working | Twenty years of photos, and only one copy of them | Unplug it and stop trying |
A Hedge End case, start to finish.
Straight answers for Hedge End.
Which parts of Hedge End do you take work from?
All of SO30, and the streets around St Johns Road or Bursledon Road, just like everywhere else. Since post connects you to the bench, the whole parish starts level.
A school office server has stopped. What is the first move?
Leave it switched off and don't let anyone try to rebuild it. Tell us how many disks it holds and which bay each one was in. Get a quote first, by phone or with the form, then send the disks to us bare and labelled. Each one is imaged before the set is touched.
A memory stick is not being read. Is it worth sending?
Usually. A flash memory chip will last long after its controller and its solder joints have failed, so a memory stick your computer does not recognise can often be read at chip level. Do not plug it back in. Get a quote first, by phone or with the form, then post it to us.
Does a price come before the work or after it?
Before. There is no charge for diagnosis. We then give you one fixed written quote, and nothing at all is done until you accept that figure. In most cases you only pay if we recover your data.
