- 1
Send us your weekly starts file
CSV, Excel, whatever you've got. We pull the lot data and kick off every request — no copying into portals.
- 2
We handle everything from there
ESI-IDs, meter installs, permit issues, utility follow-ups. You get status updates by email — no chasing required.

Perm meter and transfer, done
When the home's ready, request the permanent meter and transfer to the homeowner — all from the dashboard.
Sound familiar?
↓ Real frustration, real relief.
A frustrated construction manager“I've been on hold with CenterPoint for 40 minutes. Again. I just need to know if the ESI-ID went through. My super is waiting on-site with nothing to do.”
Their purchasing manager“And don't even get me started on Oncor's process vs. AEP's vs. TNMP. Every utility wants something different. We lose days just figuring out the right steps.”
UtilityOn“Send us your starts list. We'll have ESI-IDs back in days, not weeks. One process, every utility. And we'll text you updates instead of making you call anyone.”
That's literally it. That's the whole pitch.
Every one of these headaches? Gone.
Handled by people who like doing this work. So your team gets on with the job they were hired for.
Overwhelm
Spreadsheets, email chains, five portals.
Every meter in one dashboard.
Panic
Scramble the day before closing.
Transfer to the homeowner in one tap.
Burnout
Retrain every new hire on 5 utility quirks.
Your process stays the same. We absorb the quirks.
Dread
Builds that slip because nobody flagged the permit.
Issues flagged early. Your schedule holds.
Drain
Three hours of admin per home. Every home.
Your people back on the job they were hired for.
It's not often these days that companies tell you the services they offer and all the amazing things they do, and it actually comes to fruition. We have had a very positive experience with UtilityOn. And it's really brought a lot of efficiencies not only to the building side, but transitioning to homeowners, all of the above.
