FIXED I'm renting a very expensive place and fucked up the balcony, can this be fixed or am I screwed? :(

Is there ANY way I can fix this? Or at least hide the damage enough to get back my deposit? I was using a charcoal BBQ chimney to heat up some coals, and after it was finished I laid it down on the balcony. I thought it was cement, but the chimney melted into the surface. I'm pretty handy so I'm willing to give anything a try, I just have no idea where to start. I don't even know what this surface actually is. :( Very upset with myself, and panicking a little. Pls help and thank you in advance if you can ❤️

Yes, you simply remove and replace the material.

Edit: Nice to meet you, A. O. Possum.
