Have a Plumbing Question?
Hello, my question is this: We own an rental home and our tenant unfortunately did not pay their water bill and the water was shut off. After the water was restored to the home, the water pressure in the bathroom sink now has very low pressure. This problem did not eist before the water was turned off so I was wondering what could be the issue? could there be an air pocket, and if so, how would I find out WHERE said airpocket is in the water line and how would I bleed it? Or could it be sludge, or what other problems could it be? If you could name some problems and give some solutions, your help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for all your answers.
Sorry, forgot to mention that the toilet fills up slower as well. Would the same advice of cleaning the aerators still apply?

remove the aireators on the faucets and clean the debris out or replace them they're very enexspenive,they are thr tips on the end of your faucets that makes the water come out soft

If there were air pockets and you have turned on all the facets that would get the air out...so I would suspect the water was not turned on all the way..
If your toilet is slow then it isn't the aerators
Go see if you can find the outside shut off and check if is all the way open

There may be sediment accumulated in the faucet aireator and the showerhead as well as the valve.
Remove the areator and the showerhead and clear the lines.
Make sure that the angle stops are all the way on.
