Data Recovery in Dundee — Local, Fast & Reliable
Dundee brings together residents across Dundee's tenement and suburb streets, professionals working in the city centre and at the V&A waterfront, students at the University of Dundee and Abertay, and businesses along the Waterfront and the High Street, all in one of Scotland's most actively-redeveloped cities. If your computer stops working, you need a repair service you can plan around: a booked visit, a fix on the spot where possible, and the workshop for the rest.
PC Repair Services provides a personal, hands-on data recovery service across all of Dundee. Our lead technician Alex will collect your computer from your home or workplace, diagnose the fault, and return it fully repaired — by appointment, often on the same day. Whether you are on Reform Street, Perth Road, or the Broughty Ferry side, we cover the full area by appointment.
We handle a full range of data recovery jobs from Dundee customers — failed hard drives, dead SSDs, accidental deletions, and corrupted partitions. Whatever happened to your files, we'll work through what's recoverable and explain your options before any work begins.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about data recovery in Dundee, Scotland.
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.
A lot of data recovery jobs in Dundee are finished on the day, on site or at our Edinburgh workshop; when a part is needed, you get a clear time before we start. 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 DD1 — High Street, Reform Street, Nethergate — and keep you updated by message until the computer is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full DD1 postcode area. That includes High Street, Reform Street, Nethergate, the Waterfront, the West End, Stobswell, and the rest of central Dundee. A workshop drop-off, a posted repair, a booked home visit or a collection all work for Dundee; visits and collections are by appointment and carry a travel fee.
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.
Frequently, as long as it is not kept running. The click usually means the read heads are struggling, so we assess the drive first, copy what we can onto healthy storage and work only on that copy. Drives that need opening go to a specialist clean-room laboratory, and you get an honest answer before any money is spent.
Yes. Drives in for recovery in Dundee are physically secured between sessions, accessed only by the technician on the job, and never connected to public networks. We don't browse personal files unless we need to verify a specific recovery is intact (e.g. opening the first photo to confirm the image is readable). After handover, any working copies on our gear are wiped within 7 days. Full GDPR compliance and confidentiality from intake to disposal.
Yes — we recover from SD, microSD, USB sticks, and CompactFlash for Dundee customers. The most common case is accidental deletion or a card showing "please format" — those are usually quick wins. Physically damaged or burnt-out flash drives are harder and may need component-level work. We'll always do a honest assessment first and quote based on realistic recovery odds, not a flat "we'll have a look" charge.
Yes — we work on SSD recoveries weekly. The key thing for Dundee customers to know: TRIM and garbage collection mean SSDs don't hold deleted data the way old hard drives did. If you've just deleted files, stop using the drive and contact us today. If the SSD has failed entirely (no detection, won't initialise), we have the tools — vendor utilities, controller-specific recovery suites — to attempt low-level access. Honest assessment before any work.
