Unless you have something else wrong with your engine I would do the valve job. Did you do a leak down test to verify that it is an exhaust valve that is burnt? At this point it doesn't matter, not unless you have broken rings which can also cause low compression. Broken rings is a lot more involved as it requires the removal of the oil pan which requires the removal of the driveshaft that passes through the oil pan.
