Does anybody know of a company or person that can strip and re-apply anti-reflective coatings to a telescope lens?

I wouldn't fret too much about re-doing coatings. As others have said, it is not a simple nor cheap process. Uncoated achromats actually work well as long as it is not a design prone to ghost images.
