Any seamstress or tailor shop, maybe even a dry cleaners will be able to.

I did mine myself (I can sew) I unpicked the old one and fitted the new then went over all the new seams inside with iron on goretex repair tape

Tried a few local not interested as it’s not clothing. Needs to be done properly and professionally.

Look up rucksack repair companies, there are a number of them out there. Alpkit and Rab, but I guess they are the expensive ones. There's one that does a lot of mods and new bits on stuff that the army boys like to use.

Most tent repair companies will replace zips, not cheap though, most start at around £30 quid or so.
