Contact the landlord. Thats what security deposit money is for. Let them deal with it. Never try to fix a rent place yourself

If it's $10 of wood filler sticks it's definitely better to do yourself. Landlord is going to hire it out and that guy will charge a whole lot more.

Unfortunately most landlords will 'take you to the cleaners' over this kind of stuff. Try fix it yourself in an only additive way so if it does f'up it can be restored back to the start. This way the landlord can use your money to pay his brother 2000$ an hour to fill it with the same stuff and look worse but it will be 'ok' because it was done by a 'professional'
