Sunday lawn care reviews near Sandy, UT
Lawn by the sea—
Our lawn soil is extremely sandy (approximately 300 yards from the Atlantic Ocean). The previous owners of the house had left the irrigation off for years and our grass was weedy and mostly dead when we moved in. It's difficult to grow grass living so close to the ocean, but Sundays plan and daily watering have turned our lawn around. Still work to do, but looking better.

To Counter Sandy Soil and Hot Sun
When I first started Su day, we had lots of prickly weeds and bare patches in the summer. The remedy to counter this has come through education from GetSunday.com. We learned that healthy grass starts at the roots and mowing high allows our grass to grow strong and reclaim the yard over weeds. The peace of mind the ingredients in these products have given us is priceless! Safe for my children to run barefoot as well as the wild birds and animals who visit our yard. Our growing season is extra long in our Southeastern climate. The nutrients are vital to our soil and fauna. I even use it on my garden and flower beds!

Sunday has been great. My lawn hasn't looked so good in years. It's so easy to do and I'm happy all the guesswork is gone.

Lawn needed a LOT of help
We have a decent sized yard and cut down a huge tree, brought in machines to put in a swingset and let's just say... my lawn was a mess. The less grass the more mud the kids and dog bring in so I was desperate for help that was also affordable. I seeded the lawn myself and have been using Sunday now for 3 years to help maintain our lawn in spite of all the abuse it takes. We had a bad drought last year and I didn't think the lawn would survive but it did! And it's looking better even thank last year, thanks to the help of Sunday!

It's been a rough summer
It's been a rough summer here in New Jersey. This photo is the end of July with alot of heat and little rain. The last application of our Sunday nutrients didn't work its magic this summer. Better days ahead!
