Repairs and recovery

The problems that bring business computers to a halt.

Laptop and desktop repair

The problem is found and the failed part replaced, or you're told when a repair isn't worth the cost.

Hard drive replacement

Failing or clicking drives replaced before they take your files with them.

Solid state drive upgrades

Moving from an old hard drive to an SSD is often the biggest speed boost an older computer can get.

Virus and malware removal

Infections cleaned up, and protection put in place so it doesn't happen again.

Data recovery

Files recovered from computers, servers, and external hard drives that are failing or won't start, either at our location or, with your permission, by a trusted recovery partner.

Slow computer tune-ups

Startup clutter, failing parts, and too little memory found and fixed.

Batteries, keyboards, and screens

Laptop batteries, keyboards, and standard screens replaced. Most touchscreens cost more to repair than the computer is worth, so a replacement is usually the better choice.

Desktop repair and cleaning

Desktops repaired, and cleaned out onsite every few years so dust doesn't lead to overheating and failed parts.

Repair or replace?

Is your computer worth fixing?

A rough guide, followed by a straight answer for your computer.

Under 3 years oldUsually worth repairing

Most problems come down to one part, so a repair is often the most cost-effective fix.

3 to 5 years oldDepends on the problem

A new drive, more memory, or a battery can add years. A failed motherboard often carries built-in parts, and with parts prices rising, replacing it can still be worth it.

Over 5 years oldUsually time to replace

Repairs add up, and older computers may not run current versions of Windows.

Data recovery

If a drive is failing, do this first

What you do in the first few minutes can decide how much is recoverable.

Power it down

Shut the device down and leave it off. A failing drive can lose more data every minute it runs.

Don't try to recover it yourself

Do-it-yourself recovery programs can write over the files you're trying to save, and opening the drive can damage it for good.

FAQ

Computer Repair & Data Recovery questions, answered

Do you repair computers for businesses that aren't managed IT clients?

In most situations, computer repair and data recovery are offered to our managed IT (MSP) clients. Call (813) 444-4355 for more information about your situation.

Is my computer worth repairing?

It depends on its age and the problem. You'll get an honest answer on whether a repair makes sense or whether the money is better spent on a replacement.

Can you recover files from a dead hard drive?

Often, yes, but it depends on the damage. The drive is evaluated first, so you know what's realistic before any work starts.

Can you recover data from a server or external hard drive?

Yes. Data can be recovered from servers and external hard drives, as well as laptops and desktops. The device is evaluated first, so you know what's realistic before any work starts. Some recoveries are done at our Dade City location. Others need a specialized recovery lab, and with your permission, the device is sent to a trusted third-party partner.

Will an SSD make my computer faster?

Usually. Replacing an older hard drive with a solid state drive is often the biggest speed improvement an older computer can get.

Do I need to bring the computer in?

Call first at (813) 444-4355. Many problems can be fixed remotely. If the computer needs hands-on repair, you'll get the easiest way to get it to us.
