The Solar House continues its expansion across the UK with the launch of a brand-new Solar House Melksham showroom on the 5th June 2026, located inside Leekes Melksham. This exciting development marks another step in the company’s mission to make renewable energy more accessible, approachable, and easy to understand for homeowners looking to reduce energy bills and improve sustainability.
The Solar House has built a strong reputation as a trusted provider of solar energy solutions across the West of England and Wales. Founded by specialists with extensive experience in renewable technologies, the company focuses on delivering clear, honest advice without pressure. Their approach is centred around education first, helping customers understand exactly how solar works before making any commitment. This transparency has helped The Solar House stand out in a rapidly growing market where trust and clarity are essential.
The opening of the Solar House Melksham showroom is a natural progression for the brand, which has successfully combined renewable energy expertise with a retail-led customer experience. Rather than relying solely on online research or home consultations, The Solar House brings solar technology into physical spaces where customers can explore solutions in person.
This retail strategy has already proven effective at the Leekes flagship store in Llantrisant, where The Solar House operates a dedicated space as part of a multi-million-pound refurbishment. The Llantrisant showroom allows visitors to interact directly with solar panels, battery storage systems, and monitoring displays, all within a familiar home improvement environment. The success of this collaboration has helped shape the rollout of the Solar House Melksham showroom, bringing the same benefits to customers in Wiltshire.
Leekes Melksham is an ideal setting for this expansion. Known as a destination for home improvement, interiors, and building supplies, the store attracts customers who are already thinking about upgrading their homes. By introducing the Solar House Melksham showroom into this environment, customers can now consider energy efficiency alongside other home investments, making solar part of a complete home improvement journey.
Visitors to the Solar House Melksham showroom can explore solar panels and battery storage up close, speak directly with experts, and gain a clearer understanding of how renewable technology can work for their home.

The demand for solar energy in the UK has grown significantly in recent years, driven by rising energy costs and increased awareness of environmental issues. More homeowners are recognising the long-term value of installing solar panels, not only to reduce electricity bills but also to gain greater independence from the grid.
One of the key advantages highlighted within the Solar House Melksham showroom is the ability to pair solar panels with battery storage. This allows excess energy generated during the day to be stored and used later, including during the evening when demand is typically higher.
What sets The Solar House apart is its commitment to a no-pressure experience. Visitors to the Solar House Melksham showroom can explore at their own pace, ask questions freely, and receive tailored advice without feeling rushed. This approach reflects a broader shift in how people want to engage with renewable energy – through education, transparency, and real-world demonstrations.
By integrating solar into retail environments like Leekes, the Solar House Melksham showroom makes it easier than ever for customers to explore renewable energy in a way that fits naturally into their home improvement journey.
The Solar House Melksham showroom is set to open on Friday 5th June, marking an exciting new chapter for the company and its continued growth across the UK. This new location reflects The Solar House’s ongoing commitment to innovation, education, and delivering a better customer experience within accessible retail environments.
From opening day, homeowners in Wiltshire and beyond will have the opportunity to explore solar energy solutions in person and take the first step towards a more sustainable future.

If you are considering solar panels or simply want to learn more, visiting the Solar House Melksham showroom from 5th June is the perfect place to start.
