// data recovery in belfast

The city's own recovery bench.

Belfast is Northern Ireland's largest city and the engine of its economy — some 340,000 people, Queen's University, the cyber-security and fintech cluster around Catalyst and the Titanic Quarter, and a film and TV industry that's turned the old Harland & Wolff yards into one of Europe's busiest production hubs. Every bit of it depends on data, and the moment a drive fails, that data can feel lost for good.

Usually not. On most failed drives every byte is still there — it's the electronics, the heads, the controller or the file system that's gone, not the data itself. The skill lies in lifting it off cleanly, on the first attempt, without doing any further harm.

That's exactly what we do, and we've done it out of Belfast for over 25 years. Our own engineers handle every recovery in-house, never farmed out to a third party — your data stays inside Northern Ireland throughout. SSDs and hard drives, USB sticks and camera cards, Macs and laptops, plus RAID arrays, NAS boxes, servers and databases, all pass across our bench.

Being local, we can offer a choice most national outfits can't: call in with your device at our Belfast office, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, or post it over if that suits you better. Whichever you pick, a free written diagnostic and a fixed quote come first — and on the majority of jobs, it's no fix, no fee.

// across the city

Every corner of Belfast.

From the Titanic Quarter across to Stranmillis, we recover data for homes and businesses all over the city — and our central office is never far away.

// how it works

Bring it in, or send it by post.

Because we are local, you can bring your device in and talk it over face to face — or post it if that is easier.

01

Start with a call or message

Tell us the device and what went wrong, and we will give you a likely price before you set off.

02

Bring it in or post it

Bring your device — or, for laptops, NAS and servers, just the drive — to our Belfast office Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, or send it in fully insured.

03

Free diagnostic, written quote

We diagnose it, normally inside 48 hours, and send a fixed quote before anything starts.

04

Collect it, or have it posted

We recover your data, check it against a file listing, and you either collect it or we send it back on fresh media.

// typical turnaround

Most Belfast recoveries are done in 3 to 4 working days.

Dropping in skips the postage step, and urgent business jobs can usually be fast-tracked — just say so when you call.

// belfast reviews

Twenty-five years, one reputation.

We're gathering verified reviews from our Belfast customers — genuine, named reviews will be published here as they come in.

We do not publish invented reviews. We are gathering verified, named feedback from our Belfast customers and will post it here as it arrives. In the meantime you are welcome to call and talk your issue through with an engineer on 028 9002 0144.

// sending your device in

Two simple steps.

Post or drop in your device for a free diagnostic, with a note on what happened — an engineer reviews it and confirms your exact quote in writing before any work begins.

1

Send us your device

It begins with getting the device to us. Pack it well, add your contact details, and send it across — once the free diagnostic is done, we'll put your exact price in writing before any work starts.

How to pack it
  • Wrap the device in a small, sturdy box or a padded envelope so it can’t move around.
  • Leave the caddies, cables and power supplies at home — we won’t need them to recover your data.
  • Tuck your details inside the parcel — name, address, phone and email, jotted on paper or on our shipping form — and seal it.

Belfast data recovery, answered.

You'll find us at Forsyth House, Cromac Square in central Belfast, BT2 8LA. Drop it in to us yourself, Monday to Friday 9am to 5:30pm, or send it in if that's easier. Either route gets you a free written diagnostic and a fixed quote before any work starts.

Yes — that's one of the perks of choosing a local Belfast company. Bring your device to our Belfast office Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm. With laptops, NAS units and servers, pull the drive or drives out first and bring just those, labelled. A quick call ahead helps, so we can be ready and give you a likely price.

More or less anything that holds data — SSDs and hard drives, USB sticks, SD and camera cards, MacBooks and Macs, Windows PCs and laptops, external drives, NAS boxes, RAID arrays, servers, databases and virtual machines. Whether it's accidental deletion, formatting, a clicking drive, water damage, a failed array or ransomware, it's worth a free diagnostic.

Every job is handled in-house by our own engineers and never passed to a third party. That is how we have built the track record we have over 25 years.

On most jobs, yes. For drive-level repairs there's a 50% deposit up front, with the rest payable only if we get your data back — so if we can't, you're not left holding the full bill. Your free written quote lays this out before anything begins.

It varies with the device and the fault, but as a rough guide: USB sticks and memory cards start at £250 + VAT, hard drives and SSDs at £300 + VAT, while RAID, NAS and servers are from £500 + VAT. Each job begins with a free diagnostic and a fixed written quote, so the price is always clear from the outset.

// ready when you are

Lost data in Belfast? We are minutes away.

A free written diagnosis, no-fix-no-fee on most jobs, and over 25 years spent recovering the irreplaceable from the heart of the city. Drop it in at Cromac Square, or send it by post.
