Where we work · Weymouth

Weymouth data recovery. Harbour air is hard on drives; we're not.

Weymouth works close to the water — deckchair and kiosk trade along the esplanade in season, charter boats and shellfish in the harbour, sailing off Portland all year — and behind each one sits a laptop or a till doing the paperwork in damp coastal air. When one of those machines gives up, tracked post puts it on our bench and the diagnosis costs nothing.

What's wrongWhy it's common locallyStep one
A charter skipper's laptop, dead in AugustSailings, licences and the season's takings on one machineImage first, then shop for a spare
A harbourside chandlery's counter PCOrders, accounts and a decade of email on one tired boxWe recover; your IT rebuilds
A card of Portland regatta shots, unreadableHalf the town photographs the bay; cards still fail mid-shootOut of the camera, nothing more written
A drive from a winter-damp harbour cottageOld stone terraces by the water breed condensationEnvironmental handling; no DIY drying

Posting it to us: send it to our secure intake lab — tracked and insured, the return leg paid by us — with the shipping form tucked in the box. Step-by-step packing advice lives on the contact page.

Once the parcel leaves Weymouth.

Trade records, properly handledGuest lists, charter logs, shop accounts — treated the same as any company's data: name the folders that matter, results are verified against your list, and everything stays confidential.
DT postcodes post fastStandard tracked next-working-day services run from every DT3, DT4 and DT5 postcode into the lab — Weymouth and Portland sit one parcel from the bench.
Straight talk on salt airKit that lives by the harbour picks up harbour problems — salt film, winter condensation. Tell us its history, resist the radiator, and leave corrosion to controlled cleaning; the environmental page covers what to avoid.
Terms without footnotesFree look at the drive, the quote in writing and immovable, no fix no fee for most cases, and return post covered — Weymouth pays what Exeter pays.

The questions Weymouth actually asks.

Do you serve Wyke Regis, Chickerell and Preston?

Every one of them, fully — the work runs on tracked post, so the Dorset coast sits as close to our bench as the next street over. Parcels typically arrive the following working day.

Can you recover design portfolios and project files?

It comes up all the time — photo libraries, edit drives, design archives. Name the folders you care about most, and any date you're working to; we verify your list first and let genuine deadlines set the order.

My drive failed in a damp flat — does the damp alter anything?

Say so when you book it in, then skip the folk remedies — no trial power-ups, no airing cupboard, no rice bag. Damp drives come back well when nothing's been tried on them first.

Being this far from Exeter — does it actually matter?

Only a postage label and a day in transit. The diagnosis is free, the quote you get is fixed in writing, and return post to any Weymouth address is on us.

The postbox outruns the car from Weymouth.

Turn it off, say what happened, and hold any decision until the free diagnosis is back.
