Liquid damage data recovery
Water, coffee, soda, pool, toilet, ocean. Liquid doesn’t kill your data right away. Corrosion does, slowly, over the next days and weeks. That’s why speed is everything.
What we see every week
- Phones that went swimming
- MacBooks with a spill
- Laptops that won’t start after a spill
- Tablets dropped in the bath
- USB drives that went through the wash
- Flood or storm damage
How we get your data back
We clean the board, find what the corrosion ate, and rebuild it at the component level. Once it powers on, we pull your data before anything else.
What it costs
Free diagnosis. Firm price before any work. No data, no fee.
How long it takes
Diagnosis within 24–48 hours of arrival. Most recoveries are done 2–5 business days after you approve.
Our promise
If we can’t get your data back, you don’t pay for the recovery. You only risk the cost of shipping it to us, and we pay for the trip home.
From the benchWhy a spilled-on MacBook has to be turned off fast.
Liquid reached this connector on the logic board. With power still running through it, it burnt.

From the benchCorrosion so bad the charge ports burnt.
Two MacBook Pro charge ports with heavy corrosion. It got so bad that the ports physically burnt.
Read the caseCommon questions
Does rice work?
No. Rice only dries the outside. Liquid under the chips keeps corroding the board while it sits in the bag.
It turned back on after drying. Am I safe?
Back it up immediately. Corrosion often keeps spreading and the device can fail again days later.
How much is liquid-damage recovery?
It starts at $149. You get a firm price after the free diagnosis, and you pay nothing if we can’t recover your data.
Common problems we solve
iPhone won’t turn on
iPhone dead, black screen or stuck on the Apple logo? Your photos are usually still on the board. Mail it to our lab. Free diagnosis. No data, no fee.
See howMacBook won’t turn on
MacBook dead after a spill or out of nowhere? On newer Macs the storage is on the board, so we repair the board to get your files back. From $99. No data, no fee.
