Our team advised HomeServe Germany, a subsidiary of the international HomeServe PLC, on the acquisition of Barella Gebäude- und Energietechnik GmbH. The signing of the transaction took place in September 2022.

HomeServe is one of the leading HVAC trade groups with a focus on private end customers and residential construction. With a presence in eight countries and a total of around 9,000 employees, HomeServe focuses on actively strengthening trade companies in the respective regions by bundling central functions. This allows the companies to concentrate on consulting, installation and service in the HVAC and electrical trades. With this acquisition, HomeServe will expand its presence in the greater Soest area.

Barella Gebäude- und Energietechnik is a leading company in the sanitary, heating and air conditioning (HVAC) sector with a focus on end customer solutions in the greater Soest area. With a long tradition and a strong commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, Barella offers customised solutions in the areas of HVAC and PV. The acquisition of HomeServe strengthens Barella’s market position and ensures sustainable company succession.

Our team comprehensively supported HomeServe as lead M&A advisor during the entire acquisition process up to the successful signing as well as with an operational due diligence.
