How I fix the Panel door ?

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

Newbie here !We recently had a water leak problem in the basement and the attached panel door is ruined. Do I need to completely replace this panel door or is there any other way to fix this ? I am thinking due to the mold on the door, it is better and easier to just get the door replaced. Any suggestions will helpful !
Could not attach pics to the post. Please see this in comments.

    Yeah, you need to get a complete new prehung door and frame. No fixing that. Cheaper and easier to replace the whole thing.
