Front fork refurb/rebuild: Situation & options.
#2
Not used Brooks but revalving is definitely worth doing, if done properly.  I actually think Maxton do a slightly more thorough job than K-tech because they replace the OE damper tube - which is alloy and wears quickly - with a steel tube.  K-tech might do that but they didn't used to advertise the fact.

I will say that having ridden several versions of fork mods, I was pleasantly surprised by the Hyperpro progressive spring option.  They use different spring rates to the stock Yamaha springs and even with stock valving, the ride quality was improved.  Worth a punt if you're watching the budget.
