Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about data recovery in Cockenzie, East Lothian.
Every computer job is a little different, so we discuss the work and the price directly with you before anything starts. Send us a message or give us a call with a quick description of the issue and we'll come back with a clear plan tailored to your computer. No surprises and no hidden fees — you'll know exactly what's involved before you commit.
Most data recovery jobs in Cockenzie are completed the same day or within 24–48 hours, depending on the fault and parts availability. If you book first thing in the morning, simple fixes are usually returned by the evening. For more complex jobs we can collect from anywhere in EH32 — Edinburgh Road, High Street, East Lorimer Place — and keep you updated by message until the computer is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full EH32 postcode area. That includes Edinburgh Road, High Street, East Lorimer Place, Port Seton, the Harbour, Cuthill end, and the rest of central Cockenzie. Whether you need a workshop drop-off, a home visit, or doorstep collection, we adapt to fit your schedule.
All our labour comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty — if the same fault returns, we'll put it right. Parts we supply (batteries, SSDs, screens, keyboards) carry the manufacturer's warranty, typically 6–36 months depending on the component.
We work with every major brand and configuration in Cockenzie. Whether your computer is consumer, business-grade, or a custom build, send us the model details and we'll let you know what's involved.
Always. Every Cockenzie data recovery job is handled under strict confidentiality — only the technician working on your drive sees its contents, and only when necessary to verify the recovery. We never browse, copy, or back up your personal files for our own records. Once you've collected the recovered data, any temporary copies on our equipment are securely erased within 7 working days as per our privacy policy. UK GDPR compliant throughout.
Yes — SD cards and USB sticks are recoverable in many cases. The success rate depends on whether the failure is logical (accidental delete, format, corruption) or physical (damaged controller, broken connector, water/heat damage). For Cockenzie customers we always assess the device first and tell you the realistic odds before any work. Logical recovery success runs 80–95%; physical-failure cases are lower and may need specialist work, which we'll flag upfront.
Yes — but SSD recovery is fundamentally different from spinning drives. SSDs use flash with wear-levelling and TRIM, which can permanently delete data the moment you delete a file. For Cockenzie customers, we have the best chance if the SSD has failed (controller, firmware, or physical) rather than been deleted from. Tools we use include vendor-specific firmware tools and PC-3000 SSD modules. Honest assessment first; we'll be honest about odds.
