You could talk to Wayne Sanity (Saintech) in Taree for the recoating. just do a search on his name and you will find other threads on this topic and his price list was published here recently. As to refiguring well i will leave that to the more knowledable members.

I have used Wayne Sainty recently and he did a good job. The question is why do you want refiguring?

Astronomy telescopes in Adelaide do refiguring and coating. Was quoted $900 to refigure and coat a 16 inch mirror. A 10 inch would be considerly cheaper.

Deep Sky Optics in Sydney can do the refiguring and send it elsewhere for the recoat. Speak to Mark Suchting. The mirror will be perfect.
