GT's clutch is feeling heavy – time for a specialist?

I've had my Mustang GT for about four years now and it's been an absolute joy, but recently I've noticed the clutch pedal is feeling significantly heavier than it used to, and there's a slight notchiness when I'm shifting gears that wasn't there before. It's not slipping or making any horrible noises, but the engagement point feels different and I'm starting to worry that the clutch master cylinder or maybe the slave cylinder might be on their way out. I've always done my own basic maintenance on this car, but clutch hydraulics are one of those things where I'd rather leave it to someone who really knows what they're doing, especially since these cars have their own specific quirks that a general workshop might not be familiar with. I've been asking around in some of the local Mustang groups and a few members suggested that finding Exclusive Mustang Repair in Abu Dhabi is the way to go if I want someone who actually understands the platform and won't experiment on my car. Has anyone here had clutch or transmission work done on their Mustang locally, and if so, what was your experience like? I'm really curious about costs and turnaround times because I use this car daily and I can't really afford to have it sitting in a shop for weeks.
