THE OWNER/BUILDER NETWORK

What this record means

The record shows that “THE OWNER/BUILDER NETWORK” is a live, registered service mark owned by PPL, LP, a Texas limited partnership. The mark is on the Supplemental Register and protects consulting services in the field of residential and commercial building construction, first used in commerce in November 1997. Because the mark is supplemental, the prosecution history shows an examiner’s amendment on April 3 2020 followed by approval for registration on April 23 2020, indicating the mark was deemed descriptive and moved to the Supplemental Register rather than the Principal Register. The most recent action is a post‑registration notice mailed on January 30 2026, with no other enforcement activity recorded. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it only covers the specific consulting services listed. A similar name used for other types of services would be farther from the scope shown. If you are thinking of using a comparable name for building‑construction consulting, this history suggests a meaningful concern that the mark could be enforceable in that narrow field.
