You think you blew a fuse in your breaker box how do you fix that one of the two switches are tripped?
I think you are asking how do you fix or replace one breaker on a double pole breaker? Most if not all double breakers have a connector on the switch so that they both trip at the same time. They are also joined together in the body of the breaker. You have to change both of them. If that's not your question, please explain further.
How do you repair water pipe vibration from all sinks?
This condition is caused by "water hammer". It's water pressure fluxuations caused by turning faucet on & off. To fix the problem, attach (solder?) a length of pipe, as long as possible, but 16-18 inches should suffice, with a cap on the end, installed vertically, with a tee joint, behind the faucet. Anywhere in the feed pipe near the faucet is OK, but the closer the better. When water is brought back up to poressure, a air shock absorber is created, and will solve your water hammer problem.

Guy wants 400 to replace drain hose with PVC pipe. Says PVC wont clog with slime and back up. Ripoff or necessary fix?
PVC is good stuff, but it can get build up depending on what you pour in it.AnswerReally, it is less about the design of the pipe and less about the material. The drop of the pipe before the elbow can make a difference in flow. It seems like unclogging the pipe would do the trick. If the problem comes back again, then reconsider replacement and redesign of the situation.
How do you fix broken pool lines?
First isolate the area that needs repair and drain it. If it is only a hole in a PVC water pipe Get a piece of pipe the same size and cut it in half along the length. Clean both the pool pipe with the hole in it and the new piece of pipe with primer then put PVC solvent cement on both the patch and the pipe and hold it firmly in place until the solvent cement has set, To save you having to hold it in place you can get one or two hose clamps to do the job for you. If a large section of pipe needs replacement, cut out the damaged pipe and replace with similar pipe and connectors.

Are you responsible for damages caused to an apartment by a picture falling and breaking a PVC pipe causing water to soak the carpets?
Yes, it pretty much falls into anything that is caused by the tenant, it is there responsibility whether purposely or accidentally. It might be better for you to have someone fix it then for the landlord to have someone fix it. Because they could get someone that might charge a lot more then what maybe you could charge. I assume this is a finished basement, because this is the only place that a PVC pipe should be exposed. This is very easy to repair, the section is cut out and replaced with a new piece of pipe, very simple.
Q-How to fix the pipe under kitchen sink?
It is very easy to work with PVC piping. You may have to make a trip to a hardware store if you have a broken pipe, buy the right size pipe, elbow and/or the right fitings you need. Try a cheap approach first and make sure that the fittings of the pipe are correctly tighten, worn threads or loose fittings will leak. Do not use any tools! You should tight the fittings with your bear hands. If you still have a leak, maybe you have a broken pipe and need to replace it. PVC piping is inexpensive and you can find the right size at any hardware store. If you are unsure about how to work with PVC, do a web search or buy a homeowner's plumbing howto book. I wish you the best!
How do fix a leaking cast iron stack pipe that is not accessible?
You pretty much have to open up the wall. If you had access to the ends above and below the wall I suppose you could cut the pipe and put a 3 inch pvc inside of it if there were no branches in the pipe, but that isn't likely. There just isn't any way of fixing it without opening the wall.
