Composite or uPVC
A composite door is a solid core in a moulded skin: heavier, better insulated, and it holds a colour and a woodgrain far better over ten years of British weather. uPVC is the cheaper unit and a perfectly sound door in a sheltered opening.
The gap between the two, fitted, is smaller than the gap between two companies quoting the same composite door — which is the recurring theme of every page on this site.
Example: a new front door on a 3-bed semi
A composite door in a standard opening, old door taken away: £1,679 to £3,053 fitted, inc VAT. The same opening in uPVC: £934 to £1,698.
What is included in these prices
Supplying and fitting the door and frame, taking the old door away (£42 of the figure), standard hardware, and sealing around the frame. VAT is in every figure.
Not included: widening or re-forming the opening, a new step or threshold in stone, and internal decorating.
Planning estimate or quotation?
Every figure on this page is a planning estimate: what a job like this typically costs, for budgeting and for judging the quotes you get. It is not a quotation. A quotation comes from an installer after a survey, when the exact sizes, specification and condition of your house are known.
Facet Pro narrows the estimate to your own house from a photograph of the front — the windows it can see, the wall it can measure against your front door — and says which parts are measured and which are estimated for your house type. Your installer confirms the figure on survey.

Common questions
How much does a new front door cost fitted?
About £934 to £1,698 for uPVC and £1,679 to £3,053 for composite, inc VAT, with the old door taken away.
How long does it take to fit a front door?
Usually half a day to a day for a standard door and frame.
Should I replace the windows at the same time?
Doing both together means one visit, one set of scaffolding where it is needed, and a door and windows that match.
Facet Pro is in early access. We are starting to check how we measure wall area from a photograph against surveyed properties, so treat wall and roof figures as indicative and window figures as a guide.
Your house isn’t average.
See this project on your own home and get a planning estimate. Any figure on this page is for a typical house. Start with one photograph of the front and we will find your windows, doors, roof and walls, estimate your wall area, and price your own elevation.

These are planning estimates — not a quotation, and not a survey. Windows and doors: what these jobs typically sell for, from 25 years in the home improvement industry, checked against current UK prices. Render, roof and roofline: UK material and labour rates, with scaffolding, waste and VAT. What you pay depends on your own house and, more than anything else, on which company quotes it. Your installer confirms the figure on survey. Prices checked October 2026.
