Camera Cleaning

I have a Canon PowerShot SX260HS that works nearly flawlessly. I generally use it when I need to have a very small footprint camera. Lately I noticed that the lens cover does not fully retract when I power on the camera. I may have gotten some dirt/sand/dust in there and it needs a good cleaning and lube.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good shop that would be able to service this camera?
I am in the So. Cal. area and have no problems with sending the camera to a good shop.
Thanks.

Video One Repair, Newbury Park, cA. Google them for address and number. They are authorized warranty repair for Sony and canon video and also work on stills. Replaced a card slot on a6500 for me. Referred to me by Swamy’s Camera repair dept.

Midwest camera repair. Most shops can do that, BUT, they usually all charge a minimum that may surprise you.

Yes. And you can buy that camera used for under $100.

Midwest camera repair has been around since the dark ages. In Wyandotte, Michigan and they do excellent work...
