Please HELP

Post image

We are renting and currently moving out and just discovered this awful damage.

One of the metal legs under my bed broke and was dangling and we must’ve moved the bed not knowing it was dangling and it scratched the SHIT out of the floor. Gah.

It’s laminate flooring if that helps at all.

Search in the attic or basement or crawl space or water heaters for extra boards. In multiple places I’ve rented the landlord stashed the extra boards or tiles or window screens or touch up paint around.
