Is $6,000 to replace an odd-sized exterior door slab a fair price?
Project Details
My husband broke our ancient exterior door which had a shattered glass panel, cracks, and security issues. I am worried about DIYing the replacement because I found interior doors difficult to plumb in this old house. I expected the cost to be closer to $2,000.
