You're probably gonna need a new clutch Nick, there's no way to adjust the pedal tension, you can adjust the pedal travel by lifting the pedal from behind with your toe then depressing the clutch, if it's out of adjustment it should "click" when you lift it, but it won't make it any lighter. If the garage says the cable is free, it's likely a pressure plate problem, my car is doing the same thing right now, my cable is free for sure, so once I get it back from being painted it's getting a clutch.
