Decking replacement

Hi there
I was hoping someone might be able to help me. A (now) old friend managed to burn a hole in my decking of a rented property and I move out in less than a month. I want to try and get it fixed before I move out otherwise I'm concerned that a huge amount of money will be taken from my deposit to replace it. I've looked everywhere online to try and find the right width and amount of ridges but have not been able to find anything (the planks are 95mm wide which seems to be a relatively unusual size). Has anyone has the same problem before when replacing decking?
Many thanks in advance
Tom

What depth is the burn ? It would take some doing to burn a hole right through the whole plank. If it's just a small burn mark caused by a spark from a BBQ or such-like, it should be pretty easy to just sand the mark away ?0

could be the budget deck from B&Q.

if you can't find exact match,
Move a board from the edge to fill the gap and replace the outer boards with something close.0
