Honestly given the price, it’s best to invest in a modern composite door that actually keep the house warm/reduce noise/more secure.
I was in the same position as you, old refurbs look amazing but need looking after especially when it warped.

I purchased a bit of a manky one off ebay for 120 quid. It cost me about 100 quid to refurbish it all in, and I paid my very unreliable but very cheap builder to install it for 150 quid.
Probably 400 all in. Something like that . If you want someone to do all the hard work then it will cost a lot , lot more.

Not an expert, and not in London, but have been browsing a bit and £750 for no glass and still needing a sand/paint or whatever seems quiiiite high!

Can anyone give me a rough guide price for a reclaimed Victorian front door in London? Not huge, double or fancy stained glass, just 4 wood panels. Prices online are all over the place. I've found one that fits, solid and straight but not refurbished so a bit of work needed, but it's £750 and I don't have a sense for whether that's fair, a bit on the steep side or "they saw you coming!"
