Replacing a few existing floorboards from a 1930s house

[Gaby77]

Hi,
My husband is decorating my son bedroom, but when we moved in we said that we would strip all the carpets and have bare floorboards. My son room is not too bad but there are some damaged floorboards which we would like to replace. First question would be where to get the floorboards especially reconditioned ones from other 1930 houses and how to go about replacing them. Thanks in advance.

If damage is just to surface you can pull up and flip them giving a clean new surface to sand.
