City water folks came by our rental home the other day to fix a leak at our meter. We experienced low water pressure and had them come out to replace the old meter, which fixed the pressure issue.
The problem is, since we experienced low water pressure, BOTH toilets hiss (I know it's leaking from the tank into the bowl) and the kitchen sink diverter isn't working when we use the sprayer. These issues started on the same day with low water pressure.
Is anyone familiar with something like this happening? If we replace the diverter in the kitchen and the valves in the toilet, will that fix the problems, or is there something in the pipes that may also contribute to the issue?
TIA for your help!

when the city workers come back to properly clean the debris that they got into your water lines, the problems will go away..

Both items seem to have debris in them, and sometimes it is more efficient to replace them.
