Photos, contacts and files recovered from broken phones, water-damaged laptops, dead hard drives and corrupted SD cards: it all happens in-house at our 2 Glenabbey Dr, Unit 5 store in Courtice. We start with a free assessment and tell you exactly what we can pull before any recovery work begins. If we try and cannot recover your data, you do not pay. No data, no fee. That is the promise on every recovery job we take on.
Customers arrive from Oshawa, Bowmanville, Whitby and across Durham Region with devices that shops elsewhere have written off. Your device and its data stay on the Courtice bench the entire time, no mail-out, no depot. If your laptop will not boot at all, we may be able to get the machine running long enough to copy everything off before any repair work begins.
iCloud backup help is one of the most common questions we get that never requires opening the phone at all. We set up automatic iCloud or Google Photos backup so losing everything only happens once, sort out why an iCloud backup keeps failing or says storage is full, move photos and contacts across when you get a new phone, and confirm your backup has actually finished before you hand a phone over for a screen or battery repair. None of this needs a broken phone, plenty of people book it as routine maintenance before a trip or before dropping a device off for repair.
iPhone data recovery in Courtice covers a specific set of panic scenarios on our bench: an iPhone that will not turn on at all, one stuck on the Apple logo or a boot loop, and iPhones that have taken a drop in water. A dead screen or a phone that will not boot does not automatically mean the storage chip is gone, and a boot loop is often something we can work through before we call it. Customers bring these in from Clarington and across Durham Region, not just Courtice itself. The one honest limit: if the iPhone is locked with a passcode or Face ID you do not have, we cannot bypass Apple's encryption to get the photos off it, and we do not bypass activation lock on a device that is not yours to unlock. We will tell you upfront if a device falls into either category rather than promise something we cannot deliver.
Hard drive data recovery is its own compact category on the bench: hard drives that click or will not spin up, external SSDs that have died, drives that show up as corrupted or RAW instead of their normal file system, and SD cards or USB sticks that were formatted by accident. It runs through the same free assessment as phone recovery, and the same promise applies: No data, no fee. We tell you what is realistic before any work starts, and if we cannot recover anything you do not pay.
