Who does solar in Bend
Expedition Off Grid holds a 5.0 across 80 reviews and handles solar along with roof, A/C, fridge, awning, furnace and electrical work, plus chassis and parts. Cascade RV Service is the mobile option with warranty, chassis and parts on hand, and a 4.9 over 43 reviews. Mountain Modern Airstream focuses on Airstream and mobile jobs, with a 4.8. Mackin Street Customs takes insurance and body work alongside solar. Two smaller mobile techs round out the list. If your panel run needs a roof penetration, ask how they seal it before you book.
Mobile or shop for solar
Mobile work suits a panel and controller install if you have decent shade-free space at your site, and it saves you a tow. A shop is better when the job turns into wiring, a shunt, or a roof patch, since the tools and lift are there. Cascade RV Service and Mountain Modern Airstream both run mobile, and campervan electrical services does too. Confirm the tech brings the right gauge wire and a crimper for your array size, and ask whether they'll test output before they leave. A quick call about your battery chemistry and inverter saves a second visit.
Timing and parts
Spring and early summer book up fast as everyone dewinters and heads out, so call a week or two ahead even in the slower months. Ask whether the panels, controller and mounting hardware are in stock or on order, since a backordered charge controller can stall the whole job. If your rig is under warranty, get pre-approval from the manufacturer before work starts, and confirm which of the six shops will handle the claim; only one here lists warranty work. Winter sun in Bend is low, so don't judge a new array by a January test.

Questions people ask
How many RV solar installers are in Bend?
Six shops are listed for RV solar installation around Bend. Three of those are mobile techs who come to your site, and the rest are shop-based. Average rating across the listings is about 4.9.
Do any Bend solar shops do warranty work?
One of the six listings notes warranty work, so confirm coverage before you book. Ask the shop to get manufacturer pre-approval first, and get the approval in writing so there's no surprise on the invoice.
Can a mobile tech install solar at my campsite?
Yes, three of the Bend listings are mobile. Cascade RV Service, Mountain Modern Airstream and campervan electrical services all travel to the rig. Mobile works well for panels and controllers; bigger wiring or roof repairs may still need a shop.
What else can a solar shop here fix?
Most of the six also handle fridges, awnings, electrical and A/C, and several do roof work. Expedition Off Grid covers the widest range, including furnace and chassis. That matters if your solar install turns up a tired roof or a wiring fault.
