"Jeff selected Sharp Blades Lawncare last year for our lawn care needs. They’ve made a HUGE difference in the quality and beauty of our lawn. We had a section of lawn overrun by crab grass. Dylan Sathren was able to eliminate it and thoroughly over seeded the area. If you want a beautiful lawn, call Dylan!"
