Harmonica tune-up?

I have some harmonicas that are very unresponsive and difficult to play. I'm looking for someone to do a basic tune-up, similar to what is described in MP's profile:
"Your entire harp is gapped for optimum response.... If needed, reed plates are straightened to reduce air leakage. Less leakage helps improve volume and reed response. All bends will be nearly effortless."
Is MP still in the tune-up game? I tried emailing him, but no response. If not, is anyone else doing this?
I'd like to learn how to do these tasks in the future, but for now, I'm looking for help. Thanks!

I spoke with Mark on the phone about 2-3 weeks ago. He did take some time off going back a couple of years, but he is in full swing again.
I've done business with Mark and he is a stand up guy. Keep trying. If you can't get ahold of him, I have sent a ton of people to Mike Peace in Tulsa. Here's his website.

I have known Mike for several years. He's been to my home. At the recent SPAH Convention in St. Louis, he and his lovely wife were part of a small group of us that went to a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game. Great guy. Can't say enough nice things about him.
