Shop or driveway?
Two of the four solar spots here are mobile techs, and for panel work that's often the better deal. Nobody has to drive a rig with a half-finished install. The catch is that a driveway install limits the tools and the shade-free testing time. Ask where they plan to park and how they'll check output before they leave. If your rig is long or you want a big lithium bank, a shop with a bay and shore power may be the calmer choice. RV Repair Florida LLC is the mobile option with the strongest rating here, 5.0 from 7 reviews.
Big names, small names
Blue Compass RV Gainesville is the volume player, 759 reviews and a 4.3 average. That's the kind of place where the solar desk knows warranty paperwork cold and parts are likely on the shelf. RV SOLAR FLORIDA LLC is the specialist, 4.7 stars over 62 reviews, and solar is right in the name. A small shop can give you more attention on a tricky roof layout. A big one can lean on the manufacturer if a controller fails in month three. Ask either one whether the part is in stock or on order before you commit a weekend.
What to expect on the roof
There's no universal quote, but the conversation usually starts with how much roof you have, where the wires can run, and what your battery bank can actually absorb. Four shops here list solar among their services. Three also list A/C, so if your roof is crowded with a unit and vents, they've seen that puzzle. Two handle roof repair, which matters because old sealant around a new panel mount is where leaks begin. Ask them to reseal the mounting points and to show you the sealant they used. Book in spring if you can. Snowbird season fills bays across north Florida, and a solar job can turn into a two-visit project if a part is backordered.

Questions people ask
How many RV solar installers are in Alachua?
Four shops in Alachua list solar work, averaging 4.4 stars. Two of them are mobile techs who come to your rig, and two do warranty work, which helps if your panels or controller are still covered.
Can a mobile tech install solar?
Two of the four here are mobile, and both handle roof work too. Mobile is fine for panels and a controller swap. For a large lithium bank or heavy wiring, ask where they'll park and how they'll test output before they call it done.
Will a shop handle my solar warranty?
Two of the four do warranty work, including Blue Compass RV Gainesville and Advanced Mobile RV Repair. Get pre-approval before anyone touches the system, and keep your original install paperwork handy. A failed controller is usually a parts claim, not a labor argument.
What should I ask before booking?
Ask whether the panel, controller and mounts are in stock or on order, how long the rig will be in the bay, and whether they'll reseal the mounting points. Also ask how they verify output on a cloudy day, because a test that skips real conditions tells you little.
