Questions

Common questions.

How did Biggers start?
B. F. Bigger bought land in 1889, established a ferry crossing over the Current River, and built a distillery. The town coalesced around the train depot in 1901 and quickly developed as a lumber mill town.
Which river is Biggers on?
Biggers is on the Current River near Cherokee Bay. The Biggers and Reyno schools merged in 1946 as the Biggers-Reyno School District No. 87.
Why is mold such a concern in Arkansas homes?
Arkansas has hot, humid summers. NOAA's 1991-2020 normals put Little Rock's average yearly precipitation at about 50 inches and its July average temperature at about 81 F. EPA advises keeping indoor humidity below 60 percent, ideally 30 to 50 percent. Warm, damp air is why moisture problems show up in Arkansas attics, crawlspaces and bathrooms.
Why do crawlspaces matter in Arkansas houses?
EPA notes that crawl spaces with high humidity are common sites of hidden mold growth, especially over bare soil, and that soil moisture raises the humidity in the air above it. Arkansas summers are humid, so crawlspace moisture is a common thing buyers ask about. EPA also advises grading the ground away from the foundation so it does not stay wet.
