In bold is the key word.

Are they a suspension tuner, or just a local shop who also services forks?

What I am getting at is that mechanically, just about anyone can split a set of forks, make a few changes, and put them back together with fresh oil, some new seals, and possibly bushings too.

Someone who specialises in suspension however will more than likely check things over in much greater detail. Will have base line setups and data regarding a specific fork (and application) and be able to fine tune it to your requirements. Many will continue to refine this until you are happy with it as part of their price.
