Where to get a canvas stretched?

I have an old large painting that has been taken off it's stretchers and rolled up.  I'd like to get it put back on stretchers (is this what they are called? you know, the wooden bits that make a canvas into a painting) but not framed.  I have NO IDEA where to get something like this done.  Help?

N.B. I checked the art tags already.

I worked at a Corners and can tell you it is a crap shoot. It solely depends on the quality/experience of the individual doing it and I would say they are usually just hourly people that they train. I think most people with decent experience who care about good framing are not going to work there.
