My floors are laminate light wood. I get the best match wood filler and swipe it on scratches or holes. When it drys I use a damp cloth and wipe the access away.Helpful Reply -

I was told to mix sawdust with glue and fill in the gaps. Just make sure you match the wood than polyurethane the woodHelpful Reply -

I was told by floor repairman , for small damage to first use a wood pen to colour wood to match your wood. then use a wax crayon , they sell them for repairing wood finish. Fill the crack up by rubbing crayon over scratch / dent until level with floor , wipe off excess wax with clean cloth. I was told that this will stand up to floor cleaning better than just the coloured pen/ marker.Helpful Reply -
