Madison Mobile Solar, LLC
Fitchburg, WI shop designing and installing solar and lithium systems for RVs, vans, and trailers. 5.0 stars from 47 reviews.

Twelve solar specialists handle this work across the state, and four of them come to you. The shops average 4.5 stars, which tells you most people get what they paid for. A few things are worth knowing before you book.

Airstream-focused RV shop in Madison doing solar, electrical and upgrade work for boondocking rigs.
A panel that works fine in July can underperform badly by February, and the culprit is usually snow sitting on the glass or a charge controller that was never set for cold mornings. Ask the shop how they size the array for our latitude and short winter days, not just for a sunny weekend. Roof penetrations matter as much as the panels. Nine of the twelve specialists also do roof work, so have them check the sealant around every mounting foot while they are up there. A leak found in October is cheaper than one found in April. Shore power is not the same as solar. Tell the shop how you camp, whether you boondock, stay at hookup sites, or leave the rig parked most of the year, and let that drive the design.
Four of the twelve solar specialists are mobile, which is a real convenience if your rig is stored an hour from the nearest service center or the slide-out is already out. Mobile work is best for diagnostics, controller swaps, and small panel additions. A full array install with new wiring runs usually goes better in a bay where the tech has a lift and a parts counter. Confirm before the appointment whether the mobile call includes travel time in the quote, and ask if the tech carries common controllers and fuses on the truck. If a part has to be ordered, you may wait. Five of the twelve shops do warranty work, so get pre-approval from your panel or controller manufacturer first if you think the failure is covered.
Madison Mobile Solar has a perfect rating across 47 reviews, and it is the one to call if you want the work done where the RV sits. Prosser's Premium RV Outlet and Greeneway RV both carry large review counts and handle solar alongside roof, A/C, and winterizing, which is handy when one visit can cover several jobs. Midwest Airstream Service leans toward Airstream owners, and Vintage Camper Restoration is the pick for older rigs where the wiring has been reworked by three previous owners. Kunes RV of Fox Valley serves the Neenah area. None of this is a ranking, just who comes up when owners talk.
Twelve specialists are listed in the state, and four of those are mobile techs who come to your rig. The rest work out of shop bays. The group averages 4.5 stars, so read a few recent reviews before you pick one for a full array install.
Five of the twelve Wisconsin solar specialists say they handle warranty work. Call your panel or controller manufacturer first and get pre-approval, then confirm with the shop that they will bill the warranty provider directly. That step saves arguments later.
Some can, but ask. Mobile work suits diagnostics, controller replacement, and small panel additions. A full install with new wiring and a roof full of mounting feet usually goes faster in a bay with a lift and parts on hand. Confirm whether travel time is included in the quote.
Spring fills up fast as people prep for the season, and fall is busy with winterizing, so call a few weeks out. If you need panels before a summer trip, book early. Ask whether the controller and mounting hardware are in stock, since a backordered part can hold up the whole job.
