Plus chase scheduled installation dates.
Including frequently waiting on hold for extended periods.
All messages and files are neatly organized online.
Thanks to our once-off Multi-Site Agreement (MSA).
Complex request processes, city permits, site access, install delays.
Everyone gets progress emails and dashboard access.
Multiple utility logins, accounts, contacts and process notes — in one place.
Often requiring multiple calls to homeowners to avoid ongoing bills.
We proudly serve a wide range of Texas home builders, from small family-owned shops to some of the biggest names in the market.

No fees or charges are payable to UtilityOn in any de-regulated area (about 90% of Texas building sites).
We charge $100 1(electric) & $100 (gas) per home in regulated areas where our costs are not offset by Retailer subsidies. Invoicing occurs once the electric meter installation is scheduled or gas service line is installed.
In both cases, you are still responsible for any Utility or Retailer fees and charges for the provision of the meter and/or services.
1 Effective for requests submitted from 1st November 2025, requests submitted prior remain at the previous rate of $125 (for electric).
