Internal doors

PMMLondon

Good morning 
I’ve recently moved into a new house which has two internal doors missing. It’s making the rooms drafty so would like to get doors fitted pronto. This might be a silly question, but would I need to get a carpenter or would a builder or handyman/woman do this?

Thanks in advance!

A skilled carpenter would be best.  A handy-person would be fine IF you know that they're good for reasons other than online reviews.  

It's not a builder's job.

If this is an older property (pre ~1970s), the doors will be an imperial size - Modern doors from most retailers come in metric sizes.

If the property still retains the original period doors, it would be worth visiting a few building reclaim yards to find some that match. Or keep an eye open for anyone in the neighbourhood "modernising" and do a bit of skip diving - Managed to salvage a full set of period doors from locals doing the "grey paint and plain doors" treatment.

Modern doors sizes  match imperial sizes.

How about tracking down the source of the draught and fixing that ? Draught excluder tape, door curtain, filler - all cheaper than new doors ?

But what are they going to fix the draught excluder tape, curtain or filler to when there isn't a door in the doorway?  The OP stated that two internal doors are missing and s/he wants to fit them.
