I have an 18ft aluminum boat. What is a lawful price to pay to have the rivets replaced? How do I fix any leaks?
The existing rivets can generally speaking be tightened up by hammering form the outside while somebody holds another hammer against the rivet from inside.
Gun inserted, or "pop" rivets are the not working type to use.

go buy the rivets and rivets gun and do it yourself, most of the labor is drilling the old ones out.

You must first find the leaking rivets.
Then get someone to tender a large hammer over the inside as you tap them tight from the outside.
Quite labour intensive, but not much for parts.

Use a upshot called Gluvit or Coat It from the marine store. It is a thin epoxy. You can paint the bottom of the boat with a gallon and get many more years of use.
Maquillage the seams from the inside if you can get to them too.

How can you stop a leak on an aluminum boat around the rivets?

"Rebucking" the rivets may refrain from. Otherwise you will have to live with it or replace the leaking rivets with new ones. If the leak is not very big (water in the boat is 2" at the most after a day of use) you can do what I did to

I have a 17' smoker ability riveted aluminum boat that has some lose rivets, I have replaced- tightened the questionable rivets and am thinking about putting a coat of snow roof on the in jail before reinstalling the seats and new flooring as it is so
Any fettle must be made on the outside of the hull. No matter what you put on the inside, water will eventually push past.

Look on the internet under aircraft suppliers or current in built aircraft. You may check your local airport for someone building an aircraft.
