Internal doors: what the job involves

Hanging new internal doors, easing doors that stick or will not close, and replacing frames (linings), architrave and saddle boards. Older Irish houses rarely have square openings, so most of the skill is in fitting a straight door to a crooked frame.

How long it takes: Around one to two hours per door for a straightforward hang; longer per door when linings, architrave or out-of-square openings are involved.

What jobs on Talqero came to

Not enough comparable jobs yet to publish a range here. Talqero shows a price range only once at least five comparable jobs, agreed prices or offers exist — a range from fewer would describe a handful of jobs, not the market. Post your job and compare the offers you get.

What affects the price

  • Number of doors
  • New linings and architrave or the existing frames reused
  • Out-of-square openings in older houses
  • Pre-finished doors versus doors to be painted
  • Fire doors, glazed doors, pocket or bi-fold doors
  • 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.

What to ask before you choose

  • Can I see photographs of similar finished work?

  • Is VAT included?

  • Kitchen fitting from flat-pack or a supplier
  • Decking, stairs, bannisters and attic flooring

What to put in your task
