Do audio video repair places still re-cone stereo loudspeakers?

I have a pair of Ohm L stereo speakers. The speakers were manufactured in 1978. With age the woofers cones deteriorated. Can they be re-coned at a affordable price. The woofers are not blown it’s just the cone surface has corroded over the years and needs to be refinished. The tweeters are fine. They are 100 watt speakers.
I was thinking of getting a cheap pair of stereo speakers as a second set until I can repair the set I have now.
What are your thoughts?

I am an audio engineer and I can tell you that you can absolutely replace just about anything in a speaker. The real question is how much are you willing to pay and are the cones the only problem with the speaker. If you find a good place to do it for you and want them done, most A/V folks have extra parts they could possibly use.
