A utility room takes a washing machine, a dryer, muddy boots and the dog, and its floor is chosen the way a kitchen's is, only harder: rigid vinyl listed as waterproof, or porcelain tile. In Liverpool 77% of homes are houses, most of them terraced houses (38%), so the questions are the subfloor and the underlay rather than impact sound.
Utility Room in Liverpool
The Liverpool district counts 207,491 households in the 2021 census, and the mix of houses and flats in that count is what decides how a utility room floor is specified here.
Terraced houses are 38% of the homes in Liverpool, and the utility of a terrace in Liverpool is the old scullery or a lean-to behind the kitchen, on the oldest and dampest slab in the house. The reading comes first: Approved Document C asks the floor to resist moisture from below and an old slab often has no membrane. Over a dry reading the rigid vinyl floats and the tile is bedded.
Social renting is 26% of households in Liverpool, and a utility space in that stock is floored like the kitchen, in rigid vinyl across a programme: listed as waterproof, floated, wiped clean, and replaced by the room rather than the block when a machine floods it. A tenant needs the landlord's written consent before a hard floor goes in.
On the new developments in Liverpool the utility is on the same heated screed as the kitchen, and the floor is the kitchen's floor run through: rigid vinyl or tile, after the screed reading and the commissioning cycle. The edges are sealed to the fitting instructions and the machine stands on a tray, because the listing covers the board and not the joint.

Local fact sheet
Liverpool in the 2021 census: 207,491 households, 77% houses, 23% flats.
Around 35% of Liverpool's homes predate 1914 and roughly 60% predate 1944; 41% are terraces and only 7% are detached. That is one of the oldest housing profiles of any major English city, and it means the default assumption should be suspended timber at ground level with a boarded floor already under the carpet. Lift a corner before you order. If the boards are sound, an engineered floor can often go straight over a levelling layer; if they are not, budget for the base as well as the floor. In the 36 conservation areas — Sefton Park, Rodney Street, Lark Lane, Wavertree Village — that original board is a heritage feature and removing it is not automatically yours to decide.
Liverpool is two fifths terraced, more than any other city on this list, and a quarter rent from a social landlord. Much of it is pre-war, with a suspended timber ground floor over a void that was built to breathe.
Later extensions and paved yards have closed a great many of those airbricks. The void then stops drying, the joist ends sitting in the wall are the first to suffer, and the tenant reports a floor that feels springy long before anything looks wrong from above.

Rigid vinyl listed as waterproof, in the plank or the click-tile format, or a matt porcelain tile. Both cope with a leak and a wet mop; the vinyl floats over an old slab, the tile needs it levelled. The base has to be dry under either.
A floating floor carries an appliance; what it should not do is be pinned by it at one point and expected to move elsewhere. A tray under the machine and the expansion gap kept at the walls are the two details.
Laminate is kept out of the rooms that get wet in this range, and a utility is one of them. The rigid vinyl gives the same look with the waterproof listing.
Before specifying anything for a let, look under the floor and count the airbricks. Clearing them costs almost nothing and prevents the failure that no floor covering can survive; after that, a click floor that can be repaired plank by plank is the sensible let.

Yes: cut samples are £1.99 each, up to two per product, posted to your Liverpool address. Two or three side by side on the floor, in the room's own light morning and evening, settle the colour faster than any photograph.
