Liverpool · Merseyside
The floors on this page are the ones the manufacturer lists as waterproof: the rigid-core vinyl range, in plank, herringbone and tile formats, and the Berry Alloc wall panels for the walls of a shower. 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.
Waterproof 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 waterproof floor is specified here.
Terraced houses are 38% of the homes in Liverpool, and in a terrace the wet rooms are the back kitchen and a bathroom that was often added later, sometimes on the ground floor. Both are the rooms for a floor listed as waterproof, and both are the rooms where the base has a history: Approved Document C asks a ground floor to resist moisture from below, and an old slab may not. The base is tested before the floor is laid.
Social renting is 26% of households in Liverpool, and floors listed as waterproof are the kitchen and bathroom specification across that stock: click, floating, wiped clean, tolerant of a base that varies between units. A tenant in that stock needs the landlord's written consent before a hard floor goes in, and a floating floor that lifts again at the end of the tenancy is the easier request.
On the new developments in Liverpool the kitchens and bathrooms are on screed with underfloor heating, and a rigid-vinyl floor listed as waterproof is listed for that too. The screed must be dry, on a reading, and the heating commissioned, before the floor; a new screed holds water for weeks after it looks dry.

See it on the mapLocal fact sheet
Liverpool in the 2021 census: 207,491 households, 77% houses, 23% flats.
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.
Liverpool offers an exciting mix of grand Victorian and Georgian properties in areas like Aigburth and Woolton, alongside modern waterfront developments on the Albert Dock and Baltic Triangle. The city’s strong buy-to-let market also drives demand for durable, cost-effective flooring in rental properties.
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.

The rigid-core vinyl range, all 36 products, and the Berry Alloc wall panels. The listing is the manufacturer's and refers to the product; how well a room in Liverpool stays dry depends on the base and the edges.
It is the right floor, and it is not the whole answer. The base has to be dry, the edges at the bath and the door threshold sealed as the fitting instructions say, and the walls of a shower dealt with separately, which is what the panels are for.
Porcelain is fired dense enough that water does not soak in, and the tile guides explain the water-absorption figures the manufacturers publish. In this range the attribute "waterproof" is listed on the vinyl and the wall panels, so the tiles sit on their own pages.
In a waterfront warehouse conversion the structural floor is usually concrete or heavy timber, the ceilings are high and the doors were hung to the conversion's own levels. Ask what build-up height is available and what the building requires for impact sound — those two answers narrow the choice before appearance does.
Yes. We deliver across Liverpool and Merseyside from our UK warehouse, including the L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 and L6 postcode districts. Delivery cost and timing depend on the delivery postcode and are shown at checkout, and samples come by post first so the floor can be seen in the room before the full order.
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.
