history

the plank company began with a love of wood by a father and son. their passion and belief in solid hardwood flooring as the most beautiful, practical and healthy flooring led them to their timbermill in newtownards.

they designed and installed a highly advanced wood moulding machine to enable them to craft the finest quality solid hardwood traditional wide plank flooring available in the world, which would not only combine the hardest, most beautiful timbers on earth with superb quality, but it would also be totally compatible with both underfloor heating (ufh) &/or direct to dry concrete screeds.

robert & david mcneill spent 5 years researching, developing and testing boards with these qualities which could be guaranteed for use with ufh, and the past 10 years we have been able to fully guarantee our solid boards over ufh.

robert mcneill had a passion and enthusiasm for beautiful timbers, and this is carried on today through his wife ruth & their son david who continue to run this traditional family business with an emphasis on exceptional quality, a wonderful range of the worlds hardest & most beautiful woods and a very personal service.
