Home to a major aerospace and defence industry, Yeovil deals in precision data — and we keep it recoverable. We're Bristol Data Recovery, recovering hard drives, SSDs, RAID arrays, NAS units and servers in-house for over 25 years. Drop it off, or post it in. Free diagnostic, no fix no fee on most jobs, and a written quote before any work begins.
Around 40 miles from Yeovil to our Bristol bench — an easy insured post, or a drop-off if you're heading our way.
Yeovil is a South Somerset town of around 45,000 people with an industrial pedigree few towns its size can match. Once famous for glove-making, it became — and remains — a centre of British aerospace and defence, building helicopters for decades, with the Fleet Air Arm based nearby at Yeovilton. Around that core sits a wide supply chain of precision engineering and manufacturing firms, alongside the usual market-town businesses and homes.
All of that runs on data — design and engineering files, quality and compliance records, accounts and client work — much of it business-critical. When the storage holding it fails, whether that's a laptop or a multi-disk array, getting it back safely matters.
We're Bristol Data Recovery, around 40 miles up the A37, and we've recovered exactly this kind of data for Yeovil homes and businesses for over 25 years. We handle everything from a dropped external drive to a failed RAID server — all in-house, never shipped off elsewhere.
You can drop your device off at our Bristol location or post it in fully insured. Every job opens with a free written diagnostic and a fixed quote, we can provide a documented chain of custody where it's needed, business-critical jobs can often be prioritised, and on most jobs it's no fix, no fee.
A snapshot of what we handle for Yeovil customers — each links to the detail.
Engineering, manufacturing and professional firms across South Somerset trust us with their most critical storage — and the methods to match.

VMware and Hyper-V hosts, plus SQL Server, Oracle and Exchange databases, repaired and extracted.
Documented chain of custody for legal, HR and insurance cases, with clear written reporting.
Locked-out BitLocker, FileVault and VeraCrypt drives recovered with your key or password.
Tiered pricing, free diagnostics and prioritised turnaround for business-critical jobs.
From the town out to Sherborne, Crewkerne and the surrounding villages, the service is the same: drop it off, or post it in fully insured.
A few words from customers we've helped around the town.
Our engineering firm's RAID server went down with a project mid-flight. They reconstructed it from the disks and recovered every file, with a clear report. Professional throughout.
My laptop wouldn't boot with years of family photos on it. They took the drive, recovered everything and explained it all clearly. Worth the short trip up.
An SD card of wedding photos came up blank. Every shot recovered, fixed price, no fuss. Brilliant communication and posting it in was simple.
