I have sent cartridges to SoundSmith for suspension repairs and they returned them stating they do not do 'repairs'. Only adjustments as needed in regards to cantilever replacements. Andy at the NeedleClinic in Washington State or Axel in Germany does this kind of work. I've use both of them an can recommend either to do excellent work. Andy being the person who can and does the repairs in the less amount of time. Price wise, well, take you pick!
