Describe the event and current position

State whether the change was sudden or gradual, and whether the door is closed, leaning or partly open. Mention a known impact without trying to reproduce it. A normal-looking exterior does not establish that the lifting hardware is sound.

Compare the necessary work separately

Ask which items restore a suitable assembly and which are preventive recommendations or cosmetic preferences. If a replacement section cannot be matched, request an explanation of compatibility and availability before treating full replacement as the only choice.

Keep location and scope aligned

Use the Olympia Heights address, not a broader mailing label, in the proposal. If damage extends to the opening or framing, Miami-Dade’s jurisdiction resources help identify the appropriate review route for that building work.

Your questions

Is a dent always only cosmetic?

Damage near joints or attachments can affect operation. A changed or unstable assembly needs assessment.

Can I release a crooked door before the visit?

Do not disconnect or try to move an unstable door. Keep clear and explain its position.
