Topps Tiles has reported solid trading in the first quarter, delivering its fifth consecutive quarter of like-for-like growth as it outperformed the wider tiles market.

In the 13 weeks ending 27 December 2025, the tile specialist, excluding its newly acquired CTD Tiles Limited, saw revenues rise 3.7% year on year.

The core Topps Tiles brand grew sales by 2% on a like-for-like basis, up 3.7%, boosted by growth in its “Mission 365” category extensions.

In 2024, the group acquired the brand and certain assets from CTD Tiles Limited, which now trades from 22 stores, down from 31 last year following property exits and CMA-mandated disposals.

Including CTD, group sales increased 1.6%, reflecting the smaller size of the CTD estate, with the remaining CTD stores delivered like-for-like growth of 4.7%

Digital sales continued to gain share, with online revenue accounting for 19.7% of total group sales in Q1. The group also operationalised its Fired Earth acquisition, launching its transactional website and supply chain by mid-December to meet early demand.

“The Group continued to deliver growth in Q1 across each of our existing businesses and delivered like-for-like growth in CTD stores, whilst achieving some significant milestones, including appointing an interim and permanent CFO, closing the CMA process with CTD and acquiring Fired Earth assets,” said Topps Tiles new chief executive Alex Jensen.

“We are confident of delivering another year of progress both strategically and financially”.
