Chicago shade
So far so good! I switched from a local company doing my lawn care to Sunday. It’s easy and convenient. Grass looks good. It’s tricky because our backyard is in mostly shade.

Lawn vs 3 dogs
Last year I had replaced our entire lawn with new sod. Summer it looked great! But between having 3 dogs, a harsh winter, and bad soil the lawn looked rough at the beginning of the season. I’ve been very happy with how my lawn has progressively healed. Sunday makes it very easy to stay on top of my lawn care. I look forward to every new application because I love seeing the results.
