I had a master cylinder rebuilt by Apple Hydraulics years ago now.  The master failed catastrophically on the road and they again rebuilt it, but if failed slowly not long after.  They were really nice folks, but I won’t send any more work their way.

Buying your own kits and cleaning up components, re-sleeve is likely a better deal.  Note they don’t supply bellows with the rebuild (instead MGA style “cups” over openings).   Also the rings that hold the bellows (two sizes) are NLA.  I sourced suitable rings and would up buying “many” so extras are available should you need them.
