Who I help

in Nedlands

Nedlands has some of Perth’s most valuable data — and some of the tightest deadlines.

Students

UWA students & researchers

A thesis, research dataset or semester of notes on a failed laptop or USB stick is a crisis. Deadline-driven recoveries are prioritised.

Health

Medical & health professionals

If you work around the QEII precinct and keep sensitive information on personal devices, recovery is handled with strict confidentiality.

Families

Established family homes

Old desktops, external drives and phones hold decades of family history. I recover it and move it safely onto modern storage.

Business

Stirling Highway businesses

Practices, shops and offices along Stirling Highway and Broadway get priority help when business data is at risk.

The problem

Data loss we see

Here’s what to watch for. If you’re facing a deadline or holding sensitive records, stop using the device and call straight away.

FAQs

Data recovery in Nedlands:

your questions answered

I’m a UWA student and my thesis was on a failed laptop. Can you help?

Yes. Stop using the laptop and call me with your deadline. Also check your university cloud storage and email — earlier versions are often there while I work on the drive.

Often, yes. Corrupted and physically damaged external drives and USB sticks are common recoveries. Don’t reformat the drive, even if Windows or macOS asks you to.

Yes. Recovered data is handled securely and never accessed beyond what’s needed. Drives are returned or securely wiped, as you choose.

Yes. I assess devices at homes and businesses across Nedlands, usually the same day, and take complex cases back to my workshop.
