New Malden is our home turf — our base is right here, so a data recovery call in New Malden, Motspur Park or Old Malden gets one of the fastest responses we offer anywhere, often within the hour. We diagnose it in front of you, at your desk or kitchen table, and the jobs we see most run to drives that won't mount, accidentally deleted files, failed SSDs and clicking hard drives.

How a recovery attempt for New Malden actually runs
Data recovery starts with working out which kind of problem you actually have, because the two kinds are not remotely alike. A logical failure — deleted files, a formatted card, a corrupted partition, a drive that mounts but shows nothing — leaves the hardware intact and the data usually still physically present. A physical failure — clicking, grinding, a drive that never spins up, an SSD the Mac no longer sees at all — is a hardware problem, and no amount of software will fix it. Diagnosis is free, and we tell you which one you are dealing with before you commit to anything.
Logical recoveries are often done in front of you. We work from a copy wherever we can rather than the original drive, so nothing we do makes the situation worse, and you can see the files reappearing as they are found. Where the drive is healthy enough, this is frequently finished in a single visit and your files come back onto a drive or a machine you already have.

What New Malden customers call us about
Across New Malden, the data recovery calls we get most often involve drives that won't mount, accidentally deleted files, failed SSDs and clicking hard drives — though we are called out for plenty more besides.
The New Malden housing mix — a lot of 1930s semis and converted flats — means we see plenty of machines that have been in the same household for years: iMacs that have slowed to a crawl, MacBooks on their second or third battery, and family PCs clogged with a decade of software. Storage upgrades and clean reinstalls are probably our most common New Malden job. The other half is the small-business side: along the High Street we're regularly asked to look at a laptop that's the only machine in the building, which is why we carry common parts with us and try to finish on-site rather than taking anything away. We also get a steady run of student and school machines from families near Coombe Boys' and Coombe Girls' — usually cracked screens, snapped hinges and liquid damage, which is exactly what you'd expect from a laptop that lives in a rucksack.
