For multiple reasons, he might not have access to the equipment or not know how to weld (or both). If you do it yourself, use a deep penetration rod like a 6010. If you have a bodyshop do it, it shouldn't take them more than 2 hours for both sides. Most charge 40-60/hr so figure 80 to 120 bucks. Cheaper than 2 floor pans and the cost to weld them in, I'll tell you that.
