Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

easements

On my deed it states that I have a granted right of ingress and egress. The actual land owner is refusing to allow any utility's to my property. Even at my expence to repair road and fix drainage problems. Can he legally refuse utlilty's to my house site?

Thanks,
