Depends on the shop, your looking at a decent price to get a shop to do it. $800-1000 is my guess.
Remember when they pull the head they have to redo your timing, at the same time they may tell you to do timing belt, water pump, tensioners. Then they will sell you that your head should be machined, new valve cover gasket and new head gasket. Potentially new IM gaskets.
You could get a shop that will do this on the cheap, but i'm not sure if they will stand behind their warranty should there be an issue.
