Report
After many years of unsatisfactory landscape planning and service, we were fortunate to find Andrew Ferguson and his company. Andrew has been a god send in dealing with our 2+ acres of canyon property, both in terms of planning and upgrade of design and follow-up maintenance and service. He is unfailingly responsive to the inevitable mini-emergencies that are part of our semi-rural Malibu living. We highly recommend Andrew and Terroir Malibu. You won't be disappointed.

Report
Terroir Malibu is formerly Malibu Sprinkler and Landscape. The owner, Andrew, has been handling all of my landscaping maintenance needs for nearly 20 years. This includes landscape maintenance and installation/replacement, also garden lighting repai/ replacement, sprinkler systems, and my three fountains. Andrew and his team are reliable, trustworthy, and very competent. They are well qualified, insured, and nice people. I am pleased to recommend them.
