Bathroom Remodeling across Arkansas: homes and climate

The median home in Arkansas was built in 1987, and about 40% were built before 1980. Many homes of this age still have their first kitchen or bathroom. Decide early whether you want to move fixtures, since that changes the permit and the scope. Federal EPA rules require firms that disturb painted surfaces in homes built before 1978 to follow lead-safe work practices. Ask whether the company is EPA lead-safe certified.

About 84% of Arkansas's counties are in climate zone 3A (warm, humid), based on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map. In a damp climate, a bathroom exhaust fan that vents outside (not into the attic) helps prevent mold. Check your own county's zone, since conditions differ across the state.

About 70% of homes in Arkansas are single-family houses, and about 66% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners.
