[quote=Anonymous]I'm considering replacing all the interior wood doors in my 1930s house. The old doors are solid wood and original, which I like. But they are in bad shape and need to be sanded and refinished. They are painted white with terrible drips and chips. And underneath are layers of lead paint so I'm uncomfortable scraping or sanding them myself. Is it worth saving them? If I replace them do I need to do this professionally due to the lead or simply remove them? If I replace them is it worth getting solid wood doors if I'm painting them white anyway? Or should I go with composite solid core? I want them to look authentic.[/quote]
