My apt in Park Slope has a 100 yr old parquet floor. It has probably been sanded numerous times, and we sanded and poly’ed when we moved in a year ago. There is one particular square that for some reason is in particularly bad shape with some of the wood slats crumbling away. Looking at it, it looks like it has been repaired at some point since one of the slats doesnt match. The pieces are approx 12 inches by 1 inch and about one eigth inch deep. Currently there are 3 other slats in that square that are falling apart and coming out. How do I repair this? Can anyone recommend someone that could fix this for me, considering it is such a small job? The problematic square is smack in middle of our dining room so it gets a lot of foot traffic, so I would like to repair it.<\/p>\n

Please see the attached photo. The bottom photo is the entire area, with the problem square in the upper right, and the upper photo is the problem square with some of the pieces that are crumbling. Thanks in advance for your help, any advice would be appreciated. I am particularly looking for recommendations for someone that can fix this since if I try myself I would probably make it worse.
