Default Looking for a local shop to remove rusted bolt...

I'm trying to remove the rusted bolts that connect my exhaust to the catalyic converter. I've used a pb blaster, breaker bar, impact gun wont fit.. and on top of that I thing one of the nuts is now rounded.

So I need to know how much would it cost me to just get those two bolts removed at a shop. I can do the (and prefer to) rest by myself. I called around today but it's Sunday and everyone is closed. I'm assuming it should'nt cost more than an hour labor MAX if that at all.
