If you mean have the lab fix your photos for you/do the hard thinking/work...I am not sure. The photo labs in my neighborhood never got it right. Although there was one lab which was predictable in the way the crop and color balance that I began shooting my color print photos with their quirk in the back of my mind (which was odd because I was shooting to please THEM); I did not stay with them that long...
Like Paul, I had my own B/W darkroom and those days I am sentimental about. Not that I want to build up a darkroom again (...who will clean up after me...) but they were 'fun' times. Then again, I still have to burn in the too bright images and dodge the dark ones...
