Changing Front Door


I have a old house with an odd sized front door, 80x34, which I would like to change out. The door I am going to put in is 80x32 so there is framing that needs to be done. I dont have the time to do it myself and am going to hire someone to do it. What would be a decient price to have this done? Ball park figure?

Re: Changing Front Door


You would need someone with the skills of....say a carpenter, or one who is maybe a woodworker.
Perhaps maybe even with some drafting skills to draw it up.
No one here could put a price on a person of such skills
