Kent Power Utility Services, LLC was founded in 2021 by Troy Kent to bring proven utility construction know-how to everyday projects — the kind homeowners and small business owners actually need, without industrial bid timelines or nationwide crew mobilization.

We handle the same categories of work that define professional utility contractors — distribution, service lines, gas infrastructure, and storm response — but sized for residential streets, rental properties, rural acreage, and local storefronts around Rockford and greater Grand Rapids.

Troy Kent — licensed, insured, safety-first crews with clear written estimates before work starts.

FAQ

Is this the same company as Kent Power (kentpower.com)?

Kent Power Utility Services, LLC is a separate local company founded in 2021 and focused on residential and small-business utility work. We apply the same professional standards — distribution, gas, and storm response — at a scale suited to homeowners and local shops.

What kind of projects do you take on?

Panel upgrades, new service lines, gas meter sets, pole and overhead repairs, storm damage, and small commercial tie-ins. We do not bid large transmission or substation construction — for that scale, contact a regional utility contractor directly.

What areas do you serve?

Rockford, Grand Rapids, Wyoming, Kentwood, Walker, Cedar Springs, and communities within roughly 50 miles of our Rockford office. Call if you are outside that radius.

Do you coordinate with the utility company?

Yes. We handle DTE Energy and Consumers Energy coordination, meter scheduling, and permit requirements so your project clears inspection without you chasing paperwork.

How do estimates and payment work?

Troy Kent provides a written estimate after a site visit or photo review. We accept check, ACH, and major cards. Emergency storm work is billed at the quoted rush rate once crews are dispatched.
