Data Recovery in Springfield, MA
Logic-board and water-damage recovery to get your photos and files back off a dead device.
When the device is gone but the photos aren't, this is the job. We recover data from phones, tablets, and computers — including devices that won't power on and devices that have been in water. Board-level work goes to a specialist rather than being guessed at, and recovery timelines vary with how bad the damage actually is. You're dealing with a walk-in counter in Springfield, not a mail-in lab in another state.

How it actually goes
From the counter to the bench
Bring it in fast, and don't power it on
If it's been in liquid, skip the rice — it doesn't work — and don't try to power it on yourself. Every day makes it worse. Come to 95 Mill Street, Suite B1 in Springfield, or call 413-234-4313 on your way.
The look is free
We diagnose it in front of you and give you the price before we touch it. The quote covers parts and labor, there's no obligation, and no work starts until you say yes. The one exception we'll always warn you about first: a labor-heavy teardown that still doesn't produce a working device can carry a bench fee, and you'll hear that before you leave it with us.
In-house where we can, specialist where we can't
Some of this is bench work here. Some of it is board-level, and when it is, we refer it to one of our specialists rather than guessing — we do that all the time. Either way you'll know which one you're looking at, and what it costs, before anything happens.
Timelines depend on the damage
Recovery timelines vary with the extent of the damage. Data recovery is the category of work that can take up to a week or longer — we'd rather give you a real window than a comfortable one.
We tell you when it's ready
Most of the time you won't have to chase us — we reach out as soon as your device is ready. If you'd rather check, call or text 413-234-4313 with your name and we'll tell you exactly where it stands.
Straight answers
Questions we get at the counter
Can you get photos off a phone that won't turn on?
Often, yes. A phone that won't power on is usually a battery, charging port, or logic-board issue — not a dead phone. We offer data recovery for phones, tablets, and computers, including devices that won't power on or have suffered water damage. Recovery timelines vary depending on the extent of the damage.
My phone got wet — what should I do right now?
Bring it in as soon as you can. Skip the rice: it does not work, it is a myth, and it is not scientifically viable. Don't try to power the device on yourself. Every day that passes makes recovery harder, so come to 95 Mill Street, Suite B1 in Springfield or call 413-234-4313 first — don't wait it out.
Do you do logic-board and micro-soldering work?
Yes, this shop handles board-level repair, and we have a micro-soldering specialist — he works weekdays. Where a board job is beyond what we finish in-house, we refer it to one of our specialists, and we'll tell you that's what's happening rather than sitting on it.
Will anyone go through my files?
No. Our technicians only get into what the repair or diagnostic actually requires — we're not going through your photos or your messages. We still recommend backing up before you hand over any device, for your own peace of mind. If a repair needs your passcode, we'll tell you why.
Can I mail a device in for recovery?
Yes. You can ship a device to us for repair, and we can ship a completed repair or a purchase back to you. Payment goes up front by Cash App or another electronic method — we don't take credit cards over the phone. Call 413-234-4313 first and we'll walk you through how to pack it and where to send it.
