Lancaster's family-owned hearing care specialists

The average cost of hearing aids can vary widely based on the technology and features. On average they range from £750- £2000 per device. Factors influencing the price include the level of technology, the style of device and the length of manufacturer warranty included. We offer a range of options to suit different budgets, and payment plans are available. We're happy to discuss specific pricing during your consultation.

At Tailored Hearing solutions, we are qualified specialists in audiological care. This includes comprehensive hearing consultations,  hearing aid fittings, tinnitus management, microsuction ear wax removal and hearing protection.

There are key differences between NHS and private hearing aids. NHS aids are free for eligible patients, while private aids cost £750-£2,000 each, depending on style and technology. NHS typically offers basic to mid-range models in limited styles, whereas private providers like Tailored Hearing offer more discreet options with advanced features such as artificial intelligence for noise reduction, rechargeable batteries and Bluetooth connectivity with smartphone control. Waiting times also differ significantly. We can book you for a consultation within days and provide hearing aids 7-14 days later. Many find NHS aids meet their needs, while others prefer the additional features and personalisation options available privately. Your choice depends on your hearing requirements, budget and preferences.

Hearing loss often happens gradually and therefore can go unnoticed. Friends or family members usually identify the symptoms before the person experiencing the hearing loss themselves. Symptoms include:

• Difficulty understanding speech, especially in noisy environments
• Frequently asking others to speak more slowly, clearly, or loudly
• Needing to turn up the volume on televisions, phones, or other audio devices
• Trouble hearing consonants (like s, f, th, sh)
• Withdrawing from conversations or social situations
• Feeling like others are mumbling when they speak
• Difficulty hearing high-pitched sounds (like women's or children's voices)
• Tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, or other sounds in the ears)
• Feeling a sense of fullness in the ears
• Difficulty hearing on the telephone
• Trouble identifying where sounds are coming from

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, please do not hesitate to book an appointment with us.
