"We’ve been at our house for 13 years and in that time have gone through 5 different landscaping companies. Green Life Landscape is our preferred landscaping company, we’ve been using them for about 3 years now and we are very happy with their service. The time and the care Jose and his team provide during each visit is really appreciated. I love getting home from work on landscaping day and seeing the lawn freshly cut and the flowers and shrubs looking on point."

"I am extremely pleased with the work! I started by getting three estimates. The other two were over twice the cost of Ivory Coast. Also, while discussing the work, Ivory Coast had some good ideas on how to address the problem (blocked drain) that the other two companies didn't suggest.

The work was done very professionally. There's not much slope to my yard so I was concerned that the new drain wouldn't drain properly, for example if one section was lower than the outlet. They used a laser level to make sure the drain was sloped appropriately. When tested by pouring a bucket of water down, it drained to the street as it was supposed to.

The two new sprinkler circuits provide much more even coverage than the ones they replaced.

The new lawn looks fantastic! I had asked that it be raised a couple of inches around the patio so there's no drop from the patio to the grass like there used to be. They did that perfectly.

During the whole process, Alejandro (the owner) was very friendly, polite, courteous and overall very helpful. He really knew what he was doing.

The only part of the project that wasn't quite perfect was the scheduling. There were some conflicts with other jobs that delayed the project a few days, but overall that was very minor compared to the end result."

"I'd used TruGreen in the past is why I chose them for my lawn care. I was originally set up on 4-6 week intervals to accomodate my financial needs. Everything was going as planned until I got a fertilization/weed control treatment & aeration in Sep within a week apart. I didn't realize what happened until I received the bill and contacted them to report a duplicated charge. I was told one of the charges included an aeration treatment and was a one time application indicated in the contract. This was not my understanding and must have been in very small print I could not read. When first asked about doing aeration, it was agreed to revisit in the fall. I was not asked, told or suggested this was being done so I got hit with that bill. Customer Service Rep was useless. Her resolution was to send someone out when I mentioned the service was incomplete since the gate was locked and the technician did not have access to my yard."

"Huge shoutout to our amazing landscaper for completely transforming our yard! From the very beginning, their professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for their craft were obvious. They didn’t just mow the lawn or plant a few flowers they truly brought our vision to life. Every corner of the yard now feels thoughtfully designed and beautifully maintained. What impressed us the most was their reliability and work ethic. They showed up on time, communicated clearly, and treated our home with so much care and respect. The results honestly exceeded our expectations the space feels fresh, vibrant, and like a place our family can truly enjoy. If you’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and goes above and beyond, I can’t recommend them enough. Our yard has never looked better, and we’re so grateful for the incredible job they did!"

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in West Hills, CA

Aeration is the best way to keep your lawn healthy and vibrant. Annual aeration makes your lawn more breathable and helps nutrients reach the roots, improving water absorption and reducing puddles where pests might breed. However, timing matters. It's best to avoid aerating during droughts, extreme heat, or if your lawn is battling weeds. A local pro can help you determine the ideal time for your yard.

Most lawns benefit from annual aeration to keep them healthy and thriving. If your lawn has a lot of thatch buildup—more than half an inch—you might need to aerate twice a year for a couple of years to get it under control. But if your soil isn't compacted and there's minimal thatch, you might be able to skip a year.

When you hire a professional lawn care company, a standard 10,000-square-foot lawn takes about 30 minutes to aerate. Uneven, sloped, or especially large lawns can take significantly more time. So, depending on your lawn's size and condition, the process can take anywhere from half an hour to several hours.

The best time to aerate your lawn is during the spring or fall when your grass is actively growing and the soil has enough moisture. Aerating once in the spring and once in the fall yields the best results. Avoid aerating when your lawn is dormant or right after heavy rain when the soil is too wet—that can make aeration less effective.

Even if your lawn looks healthy, aeration can still be beneficial. If you have good growth, proper drainage, and little thatch, you might not need to aerate right away. Regular aeration helps water and nutrients reach the roots, keeping your lawn strong over time. Keep an eye on your lawn's condition to decide when it might need aeration.
