Reworking a Kydex sheath

Hello forumites, it's been some time since I've been around these parts. However my question is simple.

For those of you who have worked with Kydex sheaths what options are there for re-working them? It would seem that leaving my small fixed blade in my car in the sheath has cause the sheath to loosen up to the point where the knife all but falls out by itself. Alternatively if anyone can think of a nice maker local to SoCal who does kydex pressing I would have no issue having them rework it to the knife again.

Thank you in advance.
 
You can heat it up and repress it yourself by using the stove or heatgun. I even used my wifes hairdryer once.
 
My ESEE-5 was very loose...rattled like crazy. Took a heat gun to it, carefully, and not it's too tight and lacks that nice "click". So go easy on the heat gun.
