New timber floorboards - cracked board

Page 1 of 1
Hi,
After some advice.
We have just completed our new home, and have moved in 1 month ago.

We have Spotted Gum hardwood timber floorboards throughout.
Just noticed that one of the boards has cracked. Not separated from the adjacent board, but has a split running through and along the timber grain. (not the result of misuse, dropping objects or anything similar)

Question:
How should the builder repair this?
Replace the whole board (which may mean replacing a whole section/room)?
Sand, Putty and re-vanish the "area" that is damaged?
Other?

thanks in advance,

Plumbers 'can be' plumbers, made all the worse by self certification which the building surveyor invariably accepts as proof of compliance! The good thing is that you know know.
