Lakewood is a large Jefferson County city just west of Denver that runs up to the foothills, home to the Denver Federal Center, Red Rocks Community College, and Colorado Christian University. Front Range hail, dry air and static, chinook winds, and wildfire smoke and power shutoffs along the foothills are the main threats to computers here. We recover data for Lakewood residents by mail.
The Front Range is one of the most hail-prone areas in the country, and spring and summer storms over Lakewood can bring large hail, heavy rain, and frequent lightning. Lightning surges reach computers through power and cable lines. Put desktops, routers, and network storage on a UPS with surge protection, unplug electronics when a strong storm is overhead, and keep laptops and cameras out of cars parked outside during hail season.
Lakewood's foothill neighborhoods face wildfire risk, and strong downslope winds can drive grass fires toward homes, as the 2021 Marshall Fire showed elsewhere on the Front Range. Xcel Energy has shut off power in high-risk areas during extreme wind events. The air is also very dry, so static shocks can damage drives and memory cards. Back up before red flag days, keep a portable drive ready if you need to leave, and ground yourself before handling bare drives.

Data recovery in Lakewood — common questions
The power was shut off during a wind event and my NAS will not come back. What should I do?+
Do not start a rebuild or reinitialize it. A sudden shutdown can leave a NAS in a state where well-meaning repair steps overwrite data. Power it off, label each drive's position, and confirm your case online. RAID and NAS systems are custom-quoted after a free evaluation.
Is there a ClearQuote location in Lakewood or the Denver area?+
No. ClearQuote has no office, lab, or drop-off point in Lakewood or anywhere in Colorado. We are mail-in only, and you can ship from any carrier location in Lakewood with the free prepaid label.

No. ClearQuote is a mail-in service — there's no drop-off required. We email you a free prepaid shipping label, you send the device from anywhere in Lakewood, and we handle the recovery in our ISO-certified cleanroom.
How much does data recovery cost in Lakewood?+
One flat $1,200 for the consumer devices we handle — hard drives, SSDs, phones, and cards — quoted before you ship. There are no per-gigabyte fees and no diagnostic charge, and you pay $0 if we can't recover your data.
