Berkshire, TW19 · Wraysbury
Wraysbury data recovery. The National Trust's oldest tree stands at Ankerwycke.
Wraysbury is a long, narrow village located in Berkshire, directly across the River Thames from Runnymede. There are three spurs leading down to the river from the central green in the village. In terms of geography, while the majority of Wraysbury parish falls outside of the M25, a small corner of it is within the motorway ring at Junction 13. Surrounding Wraysbury is Thames Water's Wraysbury Reservoir. Additionally, Wraysbury has a chain of worked-out gravel pits, several of which have been designated SSSIs. Many of these old gravel pits have been converted into recreational uses such as fishing, sailing and diving. The parish council describes its residents as primarily commuter workers to Heathrow, Windsor, Slough and Staines. A significant amount of economic activity is run out of spare rooms; for example, a training provider may operate from a resident's spare room. Other examples include ground-handling and driver agencies operating from home offices. Also present are catering and cleaning businesses, as well as plant-hire and groundworks yards on the motorway fringe. Likewise, the ecologists and fisheries consultants who survey the lakes can also be found working from their homes in this parish. They all use a single computer to maintain payroll, booking systems, qualification records and dated photographs taken during surveys. When this single computer stops, get a quote first, either by telephone or through the form provided, then post its hard drive, tracked and insured, to the Guildford intake lab, as most people do, or drop it off there (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, no appointment needed); nothing is charged to examine it.

Five faults that start in TW19.
None of these? Run the triage →| The symptom | Why it turns up here | Start here |
|---|---|---|
| Membership database and booking diary both stored on a clubhouse PC | The lakes are all run using one portacabin computer, and there is no other copy stored anywhere | Switch off before anyone uses a repair tool on it |
| Home office laptop that has payroll and compliance folder | Many village suppliers serve the airport from one spare room machine | Leave it switched off. Tell us what it was doing when last powered on. |
| Yard desktop with job files and plant maintenance records | Tachograph downloads for haulage and groundworks companies working near the motorway, stored on this machine | Get a quote first, take out the disk only; that is all that needs moving |
| Single winter survey card of bird counts | The reservoir and the pits have SSSI and SPA status, and a season cannot be repeated | Remove the card now; obtain a quote beforehand, then send it untouched |
| A disk from a structure which was in contact with water | Moisture readings, floor levels and dated photographic images are all necessary for a claim | Do not dry or power it; bag it wet; get a quote first, then post it today |
What happens after you post from TW19.
What Wraysbury asks first.
Wraysbury posts as Staines. Is the village actually in Surrey?
It is not. Wraysbury is located in Berkshire and is part of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead; Staines-upon-Thames is only used as the post town and TW is only used as a postcode area. This does not affect where the media is analysed. Each drive is sent to our intake laboratory at Guildford Business Park, GU2 8XG, and each drive's label must read Guildford Data Recovery.
Is there anywhere in the village to drop a drive off?
Not here, and not in Maidenhead. We do not have a physical storefront here (no counter); no van for pickups; and no collection rounds of any sort. First obtain a quote by telephone or via our online quotation request form; if you prefer to deliver the drive personally, it may be dropped off at our Guildford laboratory Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm. No appointment is necessary. Most clients elect to send their drives by post instead, tracked and insured, and we cover the cost of return postage.
A drive came out of a room that had taken water. What now?
Leave it off. Don't heat it, don't dry it out, and don't connect it: corrosion happens quickest when your platter is damp and has been spun or warmed up. Bag it straight away (write down what it sat in and for how long), get a quote first, and send it by post the same day. Your drive will be received still wet, but there's no cost involved for the diagnosis either way.
The business runs from the house and it has stopped. Can it be moved up?
Yes. Let us know over the phone and we will mark your job as priority: it will be first in the imaging queue, and worked continuously rather than in between other jobs; and we'll give you an honest time frame for completing work, as soon as you have received the free diagnostic report. Nothing at all is charged before the written quote is in front of you.
