Didn't a contractor walk out like a week before Xmas? The shelf dresser lady was in there that day and they were both surprised that the guy just picked up his tools and left without saying anything...
Oh yeah! That guy was there just to hang some pictures. So that's 2 sets of contractors that clearly don't like Zambia.

I bet Zambia and Jojo were both being obnoxious wankers when the contractor walked out, boasting about their Maldives trips coming up and how much money they both have

Thank god these people aren’t doctors and nurses. The lack of self awareness when you’re at the end of your tether because of chips and cracks...

Poor little Ant at the end of his little tether
It's so stressful coming back from the Maldives to a little shoddy work on your 1.7m house oh do fuck off Zambia

came to say the same- don’t know about stress or pressure if this is “the most stressed” you’ve ever seen him

Not sure why Ant is feeling massively stressed about this issue. Surely just make a note of the things that need fixing and speak to someone about what needs to be sorted. By saying he is stressed would suggest there has been other issues which has created tension between the two parties.

This amazing parody video from Bella Mackie made me think of one influencer and one influencer only

He’s probably stressed because they’ve spent so much money, I would be too. The house was fine as it was, and they could have done any work themselves. I find it’s much more personal when done that way.

It's quite clear she's just said to the designer friend please can you just copy Lydia Millen's house and Instagram account to so I can monetise the Surrey nest account and have as many plain and boring backgrounds for my gifted/ad posts so I can say it's all for work and claim it all back as a business expense.

Can she though? If she's not a home owner (the house is Ant's name?) how can she?

I’ve never known people refer to trades as ‘contractors’ unless working on a commercial project. You’d normally say the builder, the brickie, the spark (or thats how we talk on my extension anyway!).

But maybe that’s how Zanna sees her home, as a commercial venture? publicly shaming her ‘contractors’ isnt going to help though is it. Sometimes people are arseholes and have unrealistic expectations which leads to a breakdown of relationship and the fact a handy man walked off site says a lot about zanna and her bossy mate JoJo.
I also found it suspicious that Zanna moved in and got her work started nearly straightaway. Any good trades are usually booked for months in advance. She should be honest and say she fucked up. She probably chose the first available ‘contractor’ who had a shiny van rather than wait for an established and time served builder. All the pretty pots in the world can’t hide shoddy work.

Wow. This is very interesting! They should publicly defend themselves !

personally, I am just at the tail end of an extension. My builders have been great and it’s been interesting to hear about the nightmare customers they have. People refusing to pay for things, not understanding that things can go wrong (like you never know the state of the ground under a house until you start digging etc). I think people just focus on their pinterest boards and don’t think about how it’s achieved. Also snobbish people tend not to speak to trades with respect.

Maybe Ant is annoyed at it all because he felt the house was fine as it was beforehand. In the videos he doesn't really seemed that bothered about all the changes and plans

And costs have probably mounted up which he is paying for? I cant imagine how annoying it must be to have an image obsessed girlfriend like her who insists on having soo much done to the house and such high end stuff. We are doing a really basic bathroom refurb at the mo and it’s costing me a lot, more than I really would like to spend but it’s just to make them usable. Nothing she is doing seems necessary and I can’t even imagine the costs!
