The company is planning to launch new services in the insurance and domestic services markets.
Adrian Pritchard, who led the Nash Fitzwilliams team, said: “The way that domestic customers purchase building services has shifted towards a branded, trusted offering.
“This shift, combined with the current national skills shortage, has created a new market, of which Local Services is a leader.”
Steve Baker, chief executive and founder, said: “Our large corporate partners have been very impressed with the quality of our franchisees and our ability to scale up in order to meet increased demand.
Solicitors Dundas & Wilson advised Nash Fitzwilliams on the deal.
