The Extra Mile staff hopes you have a fun and safe Labor Day weekend!
The Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of summer. Schools are back in session and the busy fall season is unofficially underway. The Extra Mile PowerWashing team members know this time can be a hectic time of year, with a long to-do list. It’s a great time to make a pressure washing appointment before the Christmas decorations go up 
and cold weather arrives in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The Extra Mile techs are the West Virginia Panhandle’s exterior cleaning experts. They specialize in pressure washing roofing materials, siding, gutters, concrete surfaces and decks. The company techs use the softwash technique to safely clean all 
building materials in homes and businesses in the greater Bunker Hill, WV area.

Labor Day’s history and trivia
Beginning in the late 19th century, as the trade union and labor movements grew, trade unionists proposed that a day be set aside to celebrate workers. In 1887, Oregon was the first state of the United States to make it a local holiday. By the time it became an official federal holiday in 1894, 30 states officially celebrated Labor Day.
The holiday honors the American labor movement and the contributions hard working individuals have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of this country.
This year’s Labor Day holiday is on Monday, September 7th in the United States. Canada’s Labour Day is also celebrated on the first Monday of September. More than 80
countries celebrate International Workers’ Day on May 1, which is the ancient European holiday of May Day. Several other countries have chosen their own dates to celebrate workers.
