Data recovery in Los Angeles, CA

Photos, documents, drives that won't boot — recovered when possible. We tell you the chances upfront.

How much does data recovery cost in Los Angeles?

1–3 hrs (software cases)💵 $150–$300 typical35-mile radius

Estimates are typical residential ranges and assume our standard hourly rate. Because we bill hourly, the final cost depends on how long the job actually takes — it can run higher. A business rate or any active discount may change your price. You'll always get a real quote after diagnosis.

When a drive starts clicking, won't mount, or your laptop won't turn on, the first hour matters. We attempt safe recovery on-site, and if the drive needs clean-room work we coordinate that with you.

What is data recovery?

Data recovery is the process of retrieving photos, documents, and other files from a drive that's failing, won't mount, or has been formatted. The first hour with a non-booting drive matters most — improper recovery attempts can make professional recovery harder or impossible.

  • Read-only attempt — no further damage to the drive

What problems does data recovery fix?

Drive won't mount

Computer doesn't see it, or sees it but can't read it. Often recoverable with the right software — sometimes needs hardware-level work.

Accidentally deleted

Files emptied from trash, formatted partition, or overwritten. Faster you call, better the chances.

Water / drop damage

Phone in the pool, laptop off the counter. Don't power it back on — that's when more damage happens. Call us first.

Software vs. clean-room recovery

Software recovery

Drive is detected by the computer but files are missing, deleted, or unreadable. Same-visit, $150–$300 typical.

Clean-room recovery

Drive clicks, won't spin up, or had physical damage (water, drop, fire). $400–$1,200 at our partner clean-room, 5–10 business days.

The technician was friendly, knowledgeable and skilled, which made the whole experience really great. He saved my hard drive with all my data, went shopping with me for a new computer, and set it up. I'm very grateful how everything turned out.

They were absolutely wonderful. The first company I hired didn't show, and I was resigned to waiting for next-day service — but I contacted them in the afternoon and they came over a couple of hours later, the same day. They set up my laptop in about an hour, and I was able to work with no lost time.
