    Hi everyone, hope someone can help!

    I want to replace 9 internal doors in my house - do I need to replace the architrave/frames as well? How much would we looking at roughly? I don't want to get fancy doors, just some nice white ones (with white frames - is it better to just paint the frames?).

    Also, how much does replacing a laminate floor and skirt cost (again roughly for something mid range?)? I have 4 rooms to do - in total about 55m squared!

    Even just ballpark for labour would be lovely, any recommendations very much appreciated too (Kildare area)!

    Thanks for this - in the end the price we got for labour to hang the doors, replace the floors, all the skirt in the house and one of the window sills was 2450 without materials - have to say I'm pretty ok with the price!
