Yes, they would be able to fix it. It is not uncommon for the valve
core in a schrader valve to loose air and need to be tightened.

There are automobile valve caps that have a little extension on them for
tightening the valve core.
'valve cap with valve core tool' (http://tinyurl.com/z4mk)
Small needle nose pliers will also work to tighten the valve core.
