Front and back doors: what the job involves
Supplying and fitting an external front or back door with its frame, threshold and locks — composite, uPVC, timber or aluminium. Most are made to order, so it is a survey, a wait of a few weeks, and half a day to fit.
How long it takes: Half a day to fit, after a lead time of several weeks for a made-to-order door; side panels, a fanlight or a rotten opening add time.

What jobs on Talqero came to

What affects the price
- Material: composite, uPVC, solid timber or aluminium
- Side panels, fanlight and the amount of glass
- Locking system and cylinder security rating
- Colour, furniture and finish options
- Condition of the opening, threshold and step
- VAT: supply-and-fit windows and doors are usually charged at the reduced 13.5% building-services rate, but if the materials are more than two-thirds of the price Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the standard rate to the whole job
- VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.
