Is there a secret to changing lightbulbs in chandeliers that are in chandeliers in high ceilings? Those long poles do not work. Does anyone have a suggestion besides a tall ladder? Thanks!

I ended up having my chandelier in a cathedral ceiling put on a pulley so I could raise and lower it to clean and change the lightbulbs.

How do you clean it?

A lot depends on how high the ceiling is and what is below it. We get a lot of calls to access 18' to 22' ceilings and have found one of the best ways is to use a Little Giant Skyscraper ladder.

Ours will range from about 12' tall to 21' tall allowing for about a 24' reach.

These ladders are big, heavy, and expensive about 800.00 – 900.00 and generally takes two men to move them around and set them up. Consequently the service calls are a set at a 350.00 minimum but lower than the cost of setting up scaffolding or an aerial lift.
