Understanding the average costs for replacing interior doors

At Yoojo, I’ve helped hundreds of people replace their doors! This gives me a lot of useful statistics to share with you.

I compared two types of providers who offer different prices:

Here’s the average price of a door replacement by type of specialist:

DIY Store Specialists

£68

They are either employed by the store or independent tradespeople. All have expenses and contributions to pay.

Recommended for:

  • Major renovations
  • Booking directly after purchase
  • Flexible budgets
  • Getting an invoice

Yoojo Handyman

£30

The price is lower because they pay fewer social contributions and have lower costs.

Recommended for:

  • Small jobs
  • Flexible booking
  • Anyone looking to save money

 
💰 Why is it cheaper on Yoojo?

Replacing your door: What do you need to know? 

How should you go about replacing a door effectively, and what work should you expect?

1

Should you replace the door without the frame









            ✔️Yes, if :

  • The door frame is still in good condition (no holes or cracks)
  • The dimensions are compatible with the existing frame
  • The door opens in the right direction
  • The old frame matches your decor
  • You think updating the trim around the frame is enough for design purposes


     

    86% of my clients have decided to change their doors without replacing the frame (with or without modifying the trim)

Should you replace the door along with the frame?

             ✔️Yes, if :

  • The dimensions of the new door aren’t compatible with the old frame
  • The old frame is cracked or peeling away
  • The door opens in a new direction
  • You want a uniform design
  • The new door is too heavy for the old frame


     

    Replacing the frame is a big job. Make sure you have all the right information (dimensions, materials, renovations) before deciding.)
