Salvaging lost data from hard drives
Our IT engineers have many years experience in recovering and salvaging lost data, media and files from hard drives, laptop hard drives, e-mails, smart phones, flash sticks, flash drives, ipods and even iphones. We will visit your premises and ascertain the problem. If we can't repair your current hard drive, most likely, we can supply you with a new hard drive, install it and place your old data on the new hard drive. This will enable you to use your computer as if it had never happened.
We'll give you good advice on backing up to protect your data - this will help you next time. If the problem is more complex, we will take the hard drive to our workshop. We have specialist equipment then enables us to dismantle the hard drive, recover the disk itself, extract the data and then re-install it on a new hard drive.
I think I've lost my data. My hard drive has failed. What can I do?
Hopefully you have made back-ups of all your important data pictures, movies, music and programs. OK, so you haven't. What now? Don't panic. It is still possible to recover the information on your hard drive. We may be able to repair it. If not, you will probably need to purchase a new one and re-install your operating system, but it is likely that most of the data is still on the disk - in which case it can be recovered. Call us on 020 8059 8100 and we'll send an engineer.

Why do hard disks fail?
- Sudden increases in electrical power or a surge
- Obviously by smoke, fire, and heat
- By water, floods and excessive moisture
- Static electricity
- By a virus infection
- Due to user error (deleted files, formatting)

Laptop data recovery and laptop hard drives
Laptops and Net books are small, portable devices. This makes it likely that at some time or other they will be dropped or bumped. And sometimes this will damage the hard drive and can cause data loss.
However, we have successfully retrieved and recovered data from laptops that have been damaged in all kinds of ways.

We recover data from hard drives where you may have:
- Dropped and damaged the laptop
- Unintentionally deleted or re-formatted the laptop hard drive
- Lost data due to a virus, trojan, worm or malware infection
- Water, moisture, fire or heat has been in contact with the laptop
- Experienced an electrical surge or spike
- The boot process has failed or the equipment has malfunctioned

 I thought I had lost everything there. Thank Richard for getting it back. I really will make sure I back-up my hard drive this time!

When I called up on the Thursday morning I was in a complete panic. My hard drive had failed and I had never backed it up. I had 5 years worth of photos and videos of my family and children. I felt incredibly stupid. I spoke to a guy from Multi-trade and even told him that I would pay anything to get them back! He was very professional and I immediately felt better and had a glimmer of hope that I might get the files back. He sent someone out to me. The hard drive had failed and it had to be taken away. I'm not entirely sure what magic they performed on it, but 2 weeks later the engineer returned with a new hard drive with all my pictures and videos on it. In fact, everything I had on my old hard drive. I was so relieved - what a great service. And it was all done at what I think was a very reasonable price. I would have paid a lot more and I told them that, but they never took advantage of me. Before the engineer left he set an automatic back-up service to ensure that this would never happen again. I cannot recommend Multi-trade highly enough.

Thanks for getting this data back for me. I really thought it had gone. The computer was very badly damaged. I can't recommend your company highly enough to my friends!
