FM Generator

FM Generator is a Canton, MA generator company that says it has been in business for 56 years and offers 24/7 emergency service. Its website lists home generators, commercial and industrial generator sales and installation, service and maintenance, battery back-up systems, rentals and disaster recovery. In 2026, a customer wrote that a tech did preventative maintenance and left the unit absolutely clean. In a 2024 review, a customer wrote that Technician Bryan performed the annual maintenance on their generator, updated the electronic components and performed a shut down test. In a 2025 review, a Scituate customer wrote that FM Generator replaced an old GE Fortress system with a Generac whole house generator mounted off an elevated deck 10ft high, in a flood zone. In a 2025 review, a customer whose generator was not self testing after electrical work wrote that David Walsh talked them through exactly what to do. In a 2019 review, a customer wrote that FM contracted the entire job including electrical work, and that when a violent storm cut power just before start-up, Julie Ward pulled a tech off another job to perform the start-up. A 2020 review from Eastham says FM provided a 12 kw Briggs and Stratton generator and oversaw the plumbing and electrical components of the installation. In 2026, a customer wrote that after routine service and a battery replacement, the generator failed on the next exercise cycle with an undervoltage fault, and it took about two weeks for them to return and diagnose it; the problem was a loose/mis-pinned connector, fixed under warranty. In a 2024 review, a customer wrote that they were over-billed and that the company acknowledged it but would not return their call to issue a new invoice. In a 2023 review, a customer who renewed a contract wrote that a visit was rescheduled because the tech was sick, then the tech did not show up after mixing up the appointment. A 2021 bizjournals.com article reports that owner Mike Molway wrapped up a project deep under Grand Central. A 2019 power-eng.com article says an acquisition would add nearly 1,400 former Barros residential customers to FM's client base in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.
