Experiences with replacing overcoat linings?

So I finally started wearing the coat seen in this WAYWT https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1116800072093532191/1330302949657804930 after a much-needed dry cleaning. It looks and feels great overall; fit is perfect. Thing is, the lining is somewhat torn and it's only a quarter lining in the first place. I'm not familiar with the cost/process of getting a tailor to replace the lining of an overcoat, let alone converting it to a full lining, but is this realistic to do? I read online it's generally a more expensive alteration (like the cost of labor might put it at close to $300 alone), and that I might be asked to source my own fabric (not a huge problem tbh). Anyone know more about this than I can gather from a couple of old reddit comments or is this mostly accurate?
