You can change your post type slug using register_post_type_args filter.

try out these code in your theme functions.php.

function change_post_types_slug( $args, $post_type ) {
   /*item post type slug*/   
   if ( 'service' === $post_type ) {
      $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'product';
   }
   return $args;
}
add_filter( 'register_post_type_args', 'change_post_types_slug', 10, 2 );

Then save permalink Settings => permalink => save.
