Equipment damaged TV

Xfinity service repair technician just departed. No service since 5:20 PM 12/31/24. 

He replaced the fiber CommScope micro node where the incoming fiber connects to the home coax as it has failed. Main living room OLED TV now functional. Upstairs TV still didn't work. Replaced upstairs Xfinity box. Still did not work. Determined the damage also  destroyed the HDMI 1 port on the TV itself. Disconnected the DVD player from HDMI 2 and connected TV there. Switched TV to HDMI 2. TV now functional. I am now left with a damaged TV HDMI 1 port that I can not use for the DVD player. This was all verified by the Xfinity technician. I want Xfinity to repair/replace the TV. What to do next?

The technician didn't damage anything. It appears that the Commscope node failed and took out the upstairs TV box and my TVs HDMI 1 port. 

I do not see a direct chat Icon?
