Looking for a straight-talking plumber in Hull? Aqua Venta is a water-side plumbing service covering the whole city and the villages around it — from the Victorian terraces of the Avenues and Newland to the newer estates out at Kingswood and Bransholme. We fix water: leaks, taps, toilets, blocked waste and radiators. No gas, no boiler work, no fuss — just honest plumbing, booked in by appointment and done properly.
Hull has a real mix of housing, and the plumbing tells the story. The grand old houses off Princes Avenue and the streets of west Hull around Hessle Road often still have decades-old pipework — lead tails, iron, and copper that's been patched more than once. The terraces off Anlaby Road and in the Old Town are much the same. Out on the Kingswood and Bransholme estates the pipework is newer, but plastic push-fit joints and pressurised systems bring their own quirks. We've worked across all of it, so you're not paying us to learn on the job.
What we do across Hull
We're a water-only plumbing outfit, and we keep it simple. Whatever's gone wrong with the wet side of your home, we'll sort it:
- leaks & burst pipes — from a weeping joint under the sink to a burst under the floorboards
- blocked drains — slow sinks, gurgling waste and backed-up gullies
- toilet repairs — running cisterns, weak flushes and leaks at the base
- tap repairs — dripping, stiff or worn-out taps swapped or rebuilt
- radiators — leaking valves, cold spots and swaps
You can see the full range on our plumbing services hub. If you can't see your job listed, phone us anyway — chances are it's something we handle every week.
Why a local water-side plumber
Hull sits in a hard water area, and you'll know it — limescale furring up taps, crusting around shower heads and shortening the life of washers and valves. A lot of the dripping taps and weeping joints we get called to come back to scale and old fittings rather than anything dramatic. Knowing the local water and the local housing means we turn up with the right parts and a fair idea of what we'll find before we lift a single floorboard.
If a leak has already done some damage, we also hire out drying gear same-day — dehumidifiers and blowers to dry a soaked floor or ceiling before it turns into a bigger job. Have a look at drying after a leak if water has got into the fabric of your home.
How booking works
We work by appointment — not 24/7 call-outs — so you get a proper slot and a plumber who isn't rushing off to the next panic. If you've got an active leak right now, turn the water off at the stopcock first (usually under the kitchen sink or by the front door), then give us a ring and we'll get you booked in quickly. Phone-first is always the fastest way to reach us; tell us what's happening and we'll tell you straight what's involved.
Areas we cover
We cover all the Hull HU postcodes — the Avenues, Newland, Sutton, the Old Town, Hessle Road and west Hull, Anlaby Road, Kingswood and Bransholme — plus the surrounding areas of Cottingham, Anlaby, Willerby and Hessle. If you're just outside and not sure, ask when you call.
