Contractor-Built Trenchless Equipment, Training & Support
In-Line Renewal Solutions helps plumbing, sewer, and drain contractors build stronger trenchless operations with professional equipment, hands-on training, technical support, rentals, repairs, and real-world guidance.
Founded in 2022 and backed by contractor field experience dating to 1983 through Shelton Plumbing, our approach is shaped by the same challenges our customers face in the field: choosing the right equipment, training a team, completing work correctly, keeping equipment running, and building a profitable operation around the technology.
Contractors Supporting Contractors
In-Line Renewal Solutions was built around a simple idea: contractors entering trenchless should have access to more than a piece of equipment and a shipping confirmation.
Our team understands trenchless work from the contractor side. We have worked with inspection systems, pipe preparation equipment, rehabilitation technologies, field troubleshooting, repairs, rentals, training, and the day-to-day realities of building these services into an operating business.
That experience changes how we support customers. Equipment recommendations are considered alongside workflow, technician capability, production needs, service opportunities, and long-term business goals.
Professional Trenchless Equipment Sales & Support
We distribute professional-grade trenchless equipment and pipe rehabilitation systems backed by practical contractor experience.
Rather than starting with a product list, we help contractors think through what they are trying to accomplish in the field. That can include inspection, cleaning, pipe preparation, spot repair, CIPP rehabilitation, communication, locating, or building an entirely new sewer and trenchless division.
Contractors can explore our complete trenchless equipment lineup or review individual systems based on the capability they are building.
The Infrastructure Behind the Equipment
Building a trenchless operation requires more than buying machinery. Contractors also need people who can help them learn the systems, maintain the equipment, work through field challenges, and scale capabilities responsibly.
Hands-On Contractor Training
Our training is built around practical trenchless work rather than classroom theory alone.
- Equipment setup and operation
- Inspection and diagnostics
- Pipe preparation
- CIPP and UV rehabilitation workflows
- Installation and quality control
- Field troubleshooting
Repairs & Technical Support
Equipment downtime affects schedules, crews, customers, and revenue. Our support continues after equipment reaches the field.
- Equipment troubleshooting
- In-house repair support
- Maintenance guidance
- Operational troubleshooting
- Field-informed technical support
Equipment Rentals
Contractors do not always need to make a full capital investment before evaluating a capability or completing a project.
- Flexible equipment access
- Trenchless rental options
- UV system availability
- Support during deployment
- A practical path before purchasing
Consumables & Trenchless Supplies
Reliable access to liners, resins, calibration materials, packers, connection materials, and other rehabilitation supplies is part of keeping production moving.
We approach consumables the same way we approach equipment: around the work contractors actually need to complete in the field.
Helping Contractors Build a Complete Trenchless Operation
Equipment creates capability, but capability alone does not create a successful business. Contractors also need a plan for identifying opportunities, training people, communicating with customers, pricing work, and developing reliable production systems.
Our contractor resources are designed to help companies think through the business behind the technology as they move from inspection and drain work into larger sewer and rehabilitation opportunities.
Build Capabilities That Work Together
Strong trenchless operations are built as a connected process. Inspection informs the diagnosis, preparation supports production, and the final repair method should match the actual conditions of the project.
