Hello,
If any competent carpenter can tell me. I have internal pine (1930s house) painted doors that fit BADLY (like a wedge gap at top or bottom exists). There no subsidence, so is odd. A competent person could fit them properly, but I am guessing would need a piece chopped off/ nailed on. (I won't do it as I am rubbish with wood...)

I wanted varnished pine doors, so was thinking of having them stripped and a carpenter fit them. However won't they look ****e if new pieces are added on at top/ bottom etc? Is it worth bothering or should I dump them and buy new as they will always look 'wrong'??

if you could give some advice I'd really appreciate it,
Thanks

Might be better to replace though check dimension in case a door may fit another location better than its current position.
