Secure data recovery
iPhone data recovery when the data matters more than the device.
Dead, water-damaged and unstable iPhones need a careful assessment before anyone promises recovery. We check whether the data route is viable, explain the risk and quote before recovery work proceeds.
The fixed £35 assessment covers the initial recovery feasibility check and both-way UK shipping. If you approve the final recovery quote, the assessment fee is deducted from that quote.
Secure delivery options
Choose the recovery handover route that fits the case.
If recovery is successful, the report and quote confirm the recommended delivery route before the final handover.
What we recover from
Dead, water-damaged and non-functional iPhones.
Dead devices
No power, no response and no visible life can still leave recovery options, but the assessment must confirm what route is viable.
Liquid damage
Liquid-damaged devices are assessed for corrosion, storage condition and whether a temporary data-access route is realistic.
Photos, contacts and messages
The assessment records which data appears recoverable, including common targets such as photos, contacts, messages, notes and documents.
Track the job
Clear recovery tracking from booking to return.
Status updates at the points customers usually ask about.
Tracking covers the customer-facing stages of the job: booking, shipping, lab arrival, assessment, quote decision, recovery work, handover preparation and return dispatch.
Your decision timeline
Approve, decline or take more time.
After assessment you receive the recovery finding, the proposed route, the quote and any important risk notes. You choose what happens next:
Approve the quote and we continue with the recovery route described in the report.
Decline and your device is returned by tracked shipping. No recovery fee is charged; the £35 assessment fee remains paid for the assessment and shipping already provided.
Extend the quote window for up to 28 days if you need more time to decide.
Secure device access when recovery needs it
We do not ask for passcodes during booking. If recovery genuinely needs device access later, access is requested through a secure route rather than plain text, email or SMS.
Common questions
iPhone data recovery FAQ
Can data be recovered from a dead or water-damaged iPhone?
It may be possible. Tech2Fix assesses dead, water-damaged and unstable iPhones to establish whether data recovery is viable and which recovery route is safest before any full recovery attempt is quoted.
How is recovered iPhone data delivered securely?
Recovered data is delivered using secure options such as encrypted USB media, encrypted cloud delivery or direct upload into the customer's chosen cloud environment, depending on the case.
Is the £35 data recovery assessment deducted from the recovery quote?
Yes. The £35 assessment fee is fully deducted from the approved recovery quote if you decide to proceed after the feasibility assessment.
