1. First check all GFI outlets and breakers. On GFI outlets push the test button and then the reset button. Should trip when test is pushed and reset pushes hard and clicks when correct. If nothing happens when you push test, then no power is getting to that GFI outlet. Look for another someplace else. They will string 6 or 7 of these together so they can be in different rooms. But all outlets in the bathrooms and kitchen should be GFI.
2. Check the power distribution panel usually in the garage for a tripped GFI breaker. They are usually yellow or small yellow around breaker. As stated above you have to push them off before moving them to on. A good way to check them is to wiggle the breaker between two fingers. If it feels loose it is tripped. If solid it is OK.
3. Next I would go through the replaced switch and make sure it was done correctly. Was this a single or a 3 way switch? In other words is there more then one location for the switch? Did it have three wires (red, black, and white, red and black on switch) or (just two black) attached to the switch?
If none of this works, PM me and I will come and fix it for you.
