No great mystery to it,just lay every thing out in a line as u strip the reel,clean the parts with a cloth and re grease/oil as required,then soak the bearings in lighter fluid and put them on a pen then spin them ,repeat a few times till all the old oil and dirt is gone ,then put a small drop of oil on them job done,then reassemble in order ,use the exploded diagram from the box or manual if your stuck,to be honest only the bearings and spindle Realy needs doing,the handle side of the reel can be just sprayed with wd40 and regressed with out taking it apart

eoghan is right,,i had the same opinion as the OP,,,just take your time and do your own,,,no need to spend wasteful cash on getting people to do it for you when it can be more simple than you think

some folks just end up with a box of bits or a reel that wont wind after they put it back together so if your not confident ,or have bad eyesight(looking for bits on the kitchen floor LOL) give it to a competent person !
