Is $12,000 to replace one base-level exterior door a fair price?
Project Details
We have a door to our home that's an incredibly cheap hollow core door. After owning the house for 7 years, we finally decided it's time to replace. We went with a professional company because I heard it is very hard to do correctly. They initially wanted $18k, then offered a 'military discount' to bring it to $12k. We decided to scrap the project altogether because of the price.
