Sunday lawn care reviews near Tallahassee, FL

All I can say is "WOW"
My Florida lawn in Tallahassee looked horrible over the past 4 years. Thought it was a fungal problem, thought it may be from all the trees, thought it was from lack of watering, thought it may be from the bugs. I spent tons of time, money, energy/effort to only find that my lawn was getting worse every spring. I turned to the "professional" service only to find that it was way too expensive. Needless to say, Sunday has turned my lawn around in just one spring/summer. It is green, filling in the bare spots, has to be mowed more frequently. It is a 360 degree turn from where it was last year. And, you cannot beat the price nor application process.
