About Handel's Pool Service
Our Story
Over 35 Years of Excellence in the Coachella Valley
Handel Caballero founded Handel's Pool Service in 1990 with a simple belief: excellence makes a difference when you care. What started as a one-man operation has grown into one of the Coachella Valley's most trusted pool companies, with over 35 years of experience and hundreds of pools built, remodeled, and maintained across the desert.
Handel's is a family-owned and operated company where all work is completed in-house — no subcontractors, no middlemen. From custom pool construction to complete backyard transformations, every project is overseen personally by Handel and his experienced crew.
The company holds dual California contractor licenses for both Pool & Spa Maintenance and Swimming Pool Construction, and has completed over 20 permitted projects in recent years with a typical project value around $35,000. Handel's approach is hands-on: he brings tile samples to your home, walks you through options at your pool, and delivers on the timeline he quotes.

“We had our pool replastered with mini pebble-tec by Handel's Pool Service. We chose Handel's after getting 3 estimates. He was prompt with providing us with an estimate and we liked his knowledge and experience. Things progressed on the exact schedule he described and our pool was full of water in four days! The pool turned out beautifully and we love our pool even more now!”

“Handel was an amazing contractor! His employees were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure that we were satisfied with the end product. Handel's prices were extremely competitive and came in lower than some of the bigger named companies for a higher quality final product. The landscaping and firepit were the cherry on top! Absolutely amazing!”

“He is a Superman, with a Super Crew! He went above and beyond for us. He tiled the outside of our spa because that was what would make it stand out vs just the stucco that was the original plan. When I asked for a built-in BBQ, he delivered more than I could have imagined.”
