Good work ! Awesome to see a young lady like this taking pride in this field!
I absolutely love it when I see a woman working in the trades. I especially like the fact that you are meticulous in your craftsmanship. 💪
❤💪💪💪
I love watching your videos , they’re clean , simple , and u explain everything clearly . It’s really helpful as a fellow electrician just seeing different ways to solve a problem
I've been in the trade for 19 year's and Honestly I wish some of my helpers/apprentices would have half the talent you have. Would make it 1000% easier to be a foreman. Keep up the good work and be safe!
Its up to you to train and develop your helpers. I guarantee there's someone who taught you when you were new.
then teach em
It's so hard to find people that know how to think. And think on their own
If you train them up, your apprentices can be what you need when they become journeymen. She is already a seasoned j-man, so the comparison to your apprentices isn't fair for either Lexi or them.
@@N0Sbunny some people just don't have it. No matter how you train them
Great job. Love how Meticulous you are with your work and I see that’s constant throughout your videos.
Your work is so clean and you make all of this look so easy lmao. I wish everyone had your level of integrity and attention to detail.
I'm an electrician in Germany and it's nice to see how the work is done in a different country😊. Thank you
Great videos Lexi! Try shooting horizontal. UA-cam likes it better and will push it out more.
These videos are uploads from her Tiktok account
The last electrician also put the holes in the wrong spot, but the damage is done. Holes should be in the middle third of joists, close to the edge reduces the strength of the structure.
As a past code and building official, I love it when you post videos, and I love it when a person not just any person but a lady who really knows her trades and has perfected it....I am working hard to get my daughter into becoming an electrician. Everytime you post videos I send them to my daughter Gabby. My wife and I enjoy keeping up with your videos,,they are great. And your work is spot on perfect and a million thanks. Great to see a lady in you in the trade. As always keep it safe and cheers to you. Love it when you show the Milwaukee trade tools, your too cool , thanks for all you do in trail blazing the field for our female friends and letting so many know they too can do anything men can do. And keep it up! Thanks Jonathan and Maria from wva
Thank you so much ! That means the world! I hope your daughter gets into trades
@@lextheelectrician I have had the opportunity to do many inspections in the electrical and plumbing trads and have done at least 35 years in plumbing and the trades. It warms my heart to see a young lady whom not only does the work but takes pride in her work, her tools, and perfects her her skills and trades is simply spot on great. Keep up the good works, I will try and keep forwarding your videos to my daughter and hope she jumps into the trade. My wife and I really enjoy all the videos keep posting them. My wife and I are so proud of you. Wish I could connect you and my daughter so you could give her pointers. Thanks again. And we say You Go girl!
god you simp
lmao
We use rough in pans for the wafer lights. Makes the finish much quicker. Nice work.
I am very impressed and admire your passion with your job. I always have to take days off to keep a close eye on any workers at my place, otherwise they just mess it all up! I always come back at the end of the day with bad surprises. The last one was with the electrician who made a hasty and messy job... He broke a lot of things and ended asking me to buy all the extra parts so that he would come back the next day. I can say that extreme disappointment was a real thing at that point. So, i started learning myself so i can hopefully take care of most of it.
I've done a lot of electrical since the 1970's. I did not know what I really whanted to do in life, so I wandered from profession to profession, a lot. I now know what I enjoy doing, but had to retire because of my heart.
Make a good go of it. I am proud of you, serously.
Make more videos 😀
Nice work!! Need more people like you in the world!!
Crushing it, keep up the good work.
Thank you for taking the time to make this great video very interesting and well explained
Woah! Way to knock it out. Very impressive! 👍🏼👍🏼
Amazing Work!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I recognized that blue pry bar you were using, I'm pretty sure I have one that's either extremely similar, or the same; it's a great tool. I'm a DIY-er and these videos are an inspiration to me, especially when you're saying "this only took me ..." because it's nice to know how fast pros can do this stuff, compared to how much more time it takes me. I'm still fairly new to the work, and I'm always fearful of doing things wrong; I spend a lot of time checking on videos like this, and videos from other youtube electricians to not only ensure what I'm doing is correct/valid and safe, but also afterwards to double check and make sure I don't need to revisit something I've done to correct it.
I appreciate electricians, it's an important job and valuable work - unfortunately, I'm too poor to hire someone to do it for me. I'm currently bringing my own home closer to code, as the previous owner seemed to like to do things however they wanted to, with little to no regard for code or safety. There are sets of lights connected in the basement right now that all go through a plug (romex to NEMA5-15P), that's plugged into a "handy plug" (E26 to receptacle) to power fluorescent lighting in the basement.... four magnetic ballasts on that, with eight T8 bulbs. Needless to say, not exactly safe, or code. There's still a lot of aluminum wire, and I'm trying to only install 12/2 or 12/3 romex to replace any lines that need to be pulled out. There's a lot more electrical horrors here, but I've already said a lot here.
Videos like this help motivate me to keep fixing the electrical here, and get things into a better state, so I thank you so much for this. Stay safe, and be well.
A true professional 👏🏿 👌🏿 🙌🏿 👍🏿.
wow! How good and how professional you work congratulations,
great work you're a pro!
"Such a pain in the butt" is the motto of remodeling/tearing into any existing construction. Job well done!
So interesting to watch another electrician at work. It was interesting to watch you use calculations to map out each light, my boss just has us nail up the cans without much thought haha
Haha yes this is the easiest way I’ve found
Fellow sparky here. Love the way you work and really respect your knowledge level and attention to detail. I love my milwaukee laser as well. I was thinking about your wire spools and a circular tub with a lazy susan on top would spool it out like a horizontal reel. Love the lists you do as well, I do the same thing to keep my efforts focused.
Lovin the low angle up on a ladder shots. Work girl
Nice work! Keep it up!
A perfect example of adherence to NEC Section 110.12 "Mechanical Execution of Work".
Remos (remodeling work) are always a pain, with fire jobs being the worst. But you did a very nice job with this one.
Only did a few fire jobs and everybody should be warned to NEVER open up a refrigerator or freezer while they are still inside of the house. Opened up a refrigerator that had no.power several months during a heat wave. Between the eggs, meat and other rotted items my helper throw up. Had to go out and purchase several cans of air freshener to lesson the stink.
@@garbo8962 Been there. Yeah, it was nasty. :)
A close runner up was a steakhouse that had a room just for potatoes and it stunk. There were some rotten ones in the pile and it was pretty bad.
its 2 am and i didnt know i could learn so much. thank you
I use the same recessed light calculator! Not sure why everyone else doesn't. Super easy and quick.
Me too
Great job 👍
Nice work! I prefer to use a flat frame for canless led lights. Doing this, the sheetrocker cuts the hole for the light, and I return at the finish to install the light. It's cleaner for me this way.
You are a master! Elite! No one is better at electric than you! It’s impossible!
Try doing that, in commercial and industrial. Sorry bud she is not the best by far
I enjoy your videos and learn a lot God Bless You
Love it lady. Keep it up.
Good stuff
Great video, thanks !!!
Quality Work while meeting deadlines! Love it! Using fancy gadgets can kill time if you don't know how to use them correctly but you seem technologically inclined! BLue collar mixed with white collar. LOL! Keep up the good work!
Sweet mercy!
You got all the tools wow even the Klein mod box that so new
Looks like uou got some skills.
Skills that pay the bills.
This gentleman is a 10/10. She is intelligent, hard working, beautiful, seems to have a fantastic personality, good taste in music, and self reliant.
great job! many mens now are using the m12 fuel hammer drill check out for drilling in the wood test it for 15 days if you dont like it return it and always use glove protection and glasses.
Hell yeah do your thing from Electrician to electrician much respect
I use the same website for my recessed layouts
Nice work Lexi
Great work sister
Great work my only recommendation. Get a hole hawg and a 1 inch auger. Makes life so much easier
Awesomeness
Really impressive
I usually work with "slow" (low) voltage. What sucks is when you have to bring someone else's work up to code while at the same time installing your new work. Good stuff sis, keep it up.
Smokin'
wow you're awesome!
Good work and looking lovely lady🌹
WE NEED PEOPLE LIKE THIS ONE NO THOSE TIK TOK LADIES
I like that you are not afraid to to work with out gloves,you are not afraid to build some blue collar calluses. Most apprentices are afraid to rough up there soft hands now a days
The one thing I notice is the pride you take in your job and it's something I always believe lead to perfection in your job.
Funny I write LEX on all my tool cases too because of my last name. Made me laugh when I saw that on your laser box hah
Awesome Video Lexi! You're also SUPER CUTE! ;) lol
This was the first video ive watched on your channel and definitely watching more..
i would use diagonal pliers to take the staples out instead of the crowbar. Way lighter! Good Content 👍🏼
Takes way more hand strength though. Crow bar prolly less fatiguing for her
Love the video. You should do more how to videos .
She crossed my wires, she’s got me excited
Metaphorically, my heart wires) She looks like she does a good job!
You are lucky to get work on new housing. In my area way too much work performed by foreigners who do okay work but always under bid locals. Seen them sheet rock a huge house and have 3 coats of spackle ready for paint in only 3 amassing days.
You need a NM-B spool of some sort for those 250ft coils, even if it's little more than a spindle nailed between studs.
Nice video
She now has us watch full ads without the ability to skip to see her in work jeans from the rear.
Trades girls are the best 🔥
You seem to like good tools so I would suggest looking into Werner Ladders 3 legged ladders. More stable and you can get into corners better and also stick the front leg through open walls to get you right up onto the wall. If you ever hang lighting outside it makes a world of difference also.
your so lucky you dont have to run EMT im jealous, we have to use it here in Chicago
Good job and looking lovely lady 🌹
First, good job, 110.12 all the way. I am an 01 and a generac certified tech(protector seires certification) i dont know if you know this but, 230.82 10, and 230.85 1 alow you to install the ats as supply side equipment. Meaning you wouldn have to separate the panel, and you could install next to the meter.
I’d like to see a video of how you make up your switch and receptacle boxes.
Do you have a video on the recessed lights you’re using?
I used a string line when installing my cans. Laser is so much easier lol.
WOW...impressive and I hope you make zillions of dollars with your expertise
So many Milwaukee tools!!! 😍🤤😍🤤
And uhhh also you’re craft is very precise . Have you done work in the commercial field?
This is awesome and sooo interesting. I wish the video was a lot longer, and in landscape mode. But im just being picky. Great job.
I’ll get better at it! Haha
What you nd to do, is move on from residential. To commercial, industrial. Ropping houses, are easy. Plummers, and carpetners can do it
@@MarioHernandez-hb8eh Says the dude that critiqued a video that is EXACTLY the suggested UA-cam length (to keep the attention of people, such as yourself), then suggested she do things she already does; and to top off your comment of the year, you use the word "even" which suggests that plumbers and carpenters are dumber than electricians.
Who hurt you that bad man? Don't be a Chola in a Cholo's world brah.
Hi saludos from sacramento ca .😎👍👍👍
I’ve have use that site before thank I’ve forgotten about it.
Ladder aerobics.😂
NIce job on the presentation. I appreciate that you give your verbal presentation after you've done the work. Often times people will be talking while attempting to perform the task and it becomes very distracting.
A big unfinished basement is like a canvas to me.
Wow your smart
In my 67 years, I've seen very few Women with this level of Analytical acumen, common sense, and intuitive problem solving ability. Blows me away1
No women would ever like to read such a comment, even her lmao
Can you make a video about all the tools for electricity you use the most or have? btw why do you have so many milwaukee tools, are they good or is it an obsession?
❤❤❤
Totally off topic, but your sleeve looks pretty slick.
This is a remodel. Where im from youd usually call a rough in when its new construction.
Лекси крутая!
Второй раз в жизни вижу, чтобы женщина самостоятельно занималась электрикой.(сам 14 лет в профессии)
In love...
This chick has the the prettiest face. Her freckles are awesome. What makes it better? She's a talented electrician.
my vocational teacher tells all of us to watch your tiktoks
Your cool
What did you end up charging for that job? Nice work by the way!👍🏼
❤
👍👍
So how do you get job done and inspected in two days before Sheetrocking
my friends ordered Lexi on my recommendation, they were dumbfounded at how Lexi does everything and said that now they will only wait for Lexi
❤❤❤❤
I approve of this poopshot job❤
