Worth replacing all doors at once?

I’m renovating my basement and all of the doors in my upstairs are the cheap hollow wood doors. All of my trim is a nice wood and I’d like to keep it and match with solid core wood doors in the basement staining to match the trim as best as possible.

However, I’m wondering if it makes sense to replace all my cheap doors with the solid core wood doors now, so that the wood stains and designs are consistent throughout the house?

Oil tank return line exposed

Hi all,

I am not super happy with my HVAC work and I wanted to double check here that my concerns are warranted.

First, I had my oil tank moved from one side of the basement to another and the return line for the previous oil tank was just cut and clamped but not fully sealed. When I touch it I can touch oil… Now there’s a clear circle of oil that got into my concrete floor. And it doesn’t look safe. Is this normal? I think they should have at least capped the line…

Also, we had an original invoice with a Roth oil tank and Rheem/rudd air conditioning system. They completely changed both brands without telling me. One is my fault because he put the new oil tank brand on the updated invoice (again without telling me) so I should have caught that. But the air conditioner they just took the brand off the invoice then delivered a lesser brand. I find that very poor business practice- if prices had gone up then I would have rather paid more for a nicer brand.

Attached is a picture of the old oil return line
