I’ve got a sort of hardly noticeable divit on my wood floor that’s the size of a quarter, shaped like a lego.

It looks like maybe something was dropped on it, when i press it, it’s sort of springy/soft. Sort of
like i’m pressing on lament and not wood flooring.

Anything to be concerned about or did previous owner just drop something really heavy and fckd up that small section of the floor?

I wouldn’t be concerned about it…and even if you are, there’s not much you can do.

There are utoob videos showing people using a syringe to inject resin into divots on laminate flooring to repair. If you are looking for a possible diy solution...

So when you say hardwood, is it a plank of lumber or veneer?

Furniture weight will cause indentations in the flooring as I have experienced the same with my couch's on red oak lumber flooring. I can't say that it bothers me as my furniture stays in the same place.

When our flooring was refinished years ago all blemishes were gone.

Put a damp towel over it and press with a clothes iron. Search YouTube for a video.
