Martin's RV Service Center
Great Falls RV shop since 1969 handling roof, AC, awning, collision and custom work, rated 4.7 stars.
A generator that won't start is a special kind of frustrating, because it usually quits when you need it most. Great Falls has 3 shops that work on RV generators, and all 3 list generator service among what they do. Ratings average 4.5 across more than 800 reviews, so there is real history behind these numbers. Two of the shops also handle warranty work, which matters if your unit is still covered.

Full-service RV dealer in Great Falls with sales, service, parts, and propane, rated 4.5 stars from 516 reviews.

Martin's RV Service Center carries a 4.7 rating over 53 reviews and covers generators along with roof, A/C, fridge, awning and slide-out work. Bish's RV of Great Falls has the deepest bench: mobile service, solar, leveling, water heater, furnace and winterizing, with 516 reviews behind a 4.5 rating. Fleet Truck and RV Repair sits at 4.4 from 250 reviews and handles chassis work too, which helps when the generator is tied into the coach electrical system. Call ahead and ask whether they have the part in stock. Generator fuel pumps, carburetors and control boards are not things most shops keep on the shelf in every size, and a quick phone call can save you a trip across town.
Two of the three shops do warranty work, so get pre-approval from your extended service contract before anyone touches the unit. Repairs done without approval can come back on you. If your rig will not run and you cannot drive it in, ask about mobile service. One shop here offers it. Mobile work costs more in most cases because the tech brings the tools to you, but for a generator that will not start, it may be the only option. Be clear on the phone about the symptom: cranks but will not fire, fires then dies, or nothing at all. Each points to a different part.
Note the generator model, hours on the meter, and what it does when you try to start it. Write down the last time it ran well and whether it sat for months. Old fuel is a common culprit, and shops can tell you quickly if that is the story. Spring and early summer fill up fast around here, so book early if you are heading out. Ask for a written estimate before work begins. And while the rig is in the shop, have them look at the roof sealant and the A/C, since both shops on this list handle those too.
There are 3 shops in Great Falls that list generator repair, and the average rating across them is 4.5. All three name generators among their services, so you have options if one is booked out.
Yes, 2 of the 3 shops handle warranty work. Call your warranty provider for pre-approval before the repair starts, and confirm with the shop that they will bill the provider directly or need payment up front.
One shop in Great Falls offers mobile service. Not every generator repair can be done on site, since some jobs need a shop bay and heavy tools. Describe the problem when you call so they can tell you whether to bring it in.
Have the generator make and model, the hour meter reading, and a clear description of the symptom. Mention whether it cranks, fires and dies, or does nothing. Also say how long it has sat, since stale fuel is a frequent cause of no-start problems.
