So we have really high ceilings.
This fan is making a noise like a bearing and I need to swap it out. HOW? It’s waaaaay the fuck up there. How am I supposed to do that?

Check out YouTube for "how ladders work".
 Last house had a fan 28' feet up. Hand to rent a bigger ladder because I couldn't figure out how to bungie tie two smaller ones together like I've seen done in videos.

Hire someone but scaffolding is the answer. You can rent that stuff from HD if you're so inclined.

Ladder can be wonky. Scaffolding is ideal, you'll need a few flights. Easily rented. Alternatively, hire someone but make sure they're insured and bonded in the event of a fall, but you'd probably still get sued anyway.

Usually a tall stepladder. Your lucky since your ceilings are vaulted an extension ladder will do the job. Put the feet on the floor and the boots against the ceiling.
Also not a bad idea to put clean rags around the ladder boots to not mar the ceiling. |

1. Rent a single-man electric lift.
2. Scaffolding 3. Get a ladder and replace the fan head/blade assembly and you won’t have to go all the way up to the ceiling. Sorta gets dicey there as not all fans mount to the pipe the same, and if it has a remote, the remote unit is likely between the canopy and Sheetrock, and may not be compatible with the new fan 4. Call an electrician who is going to do either 1, 2, or 3 and charge you for the labor of getting the equipment there/set up/taken down and the rental marked up |
