Data Recovery for Water & Liquid Damaged Phones

Expert Data Recovery from Water Damaged Phones

At Data Clinic, we specialise in retrieving data from water damaged phones and devices exposed to other liquids such as wine, beer, soft drinks, coffee, fruit juice, pond or river water, seawater, and even mud or swamps. Whether it’s an iPhone with water damage or an Android phone submerged accidentally, our experts can help.

Using our free collection service, send us your damaged phone so our team can carry out diagnostics and recovery at our lab. The process typically takes 5–15 working days, and we recover your data to a USB memory stick, organised neatly into folders like Images, Videos, Contacts, and more for easy access.

Our Two-Part Water Damaged Phone Data Recovery Process

Part One – Clean Up & Diagnose: We dismantle your phone, strip down the components, and conduct ultrasonic cleaning to remove corrosion. Using a stereo microscope, we perform detailed fault finding to assess damage and determine the best approach for data recovery from liquid damaged phones.

Part Two – Data Recovery: We carry out repairs or advanced recovery procedures, such as JTAG and chip-off methods, to access and retrieve your files, photos, and contacts from the damaged device safely.
