It is a repair for a worn out and smoky engine. Valves are cleaned and replaced if necessary including seats and seals, the cylinders are honed and new piston rings are installed to return the engine to a clean running state. If it's to that point I would put in new bearings as well and call it a rebuild, it's a waste in my mind to rebuild the top end when it is worn out and ignore the bottom.

Do bad valves need to be changed in sets pairs?

No but, if you are going to the trouble to take the head off, then have all the valves checked, replaced if needed,or cleaned and re-seated. The valve seat in the head should be checked and serviced also. If the exhaust valve is bad, you really do not have to replace the intake, just have it serviced. Might just have carbon on the valve and cleaning will do the job. Just make sure that whomever does the job, that the seat on the valve and head are done properly. When the valve is ground properly, there is a small ring line around the valve head , measures no more than 1/8 of an inch. If too wide, or no seat at all, the engine will not run properly, and the valve will burn. Have the valve seals replaced at the same time.
