Christina Haack’s contractor on “Christina on the Coast,” Izzy Battres, took a step back from the show to focus on his own construction business and spend more time with his family. He remains friends with Christina and continues to run his successful construction company.
Izzy Battres was a familiar face on “Christina on the Coast,” as he had worked closely with Christina Haack (formerly Anstead) since her time on “Flip or Flop” alongside her then-husband Tarek El Moussa. Izzy became known for his reliable work and friendly demeanor on the show. However, as the series progressed, viewers noticed his absence.
The decision for Izzy to leave the show was not due to any falling out or drama; rather, it was a personal choice to prioritize his own business and family life. Running a construction company is a demanding job, and being a regular on a television series adds to that workload. Izzy decided to focus on his construction projects off-camera and dedicate more time to his family, which he felt was necessary for his personal and professional life balance.
Despite stepping away from “Christina on the Coast,” Izzy maintains a positive relationship with Christina. They have both expressed mutual respect for each other’s work and have continued to support each other’s endeavors. Izzy’s construction business continues to thrive, and he remains an esteemed contractor in the Southern California area. Christina, on the other hand, has continued with her show, working with other contractors and design professionals to help homeowners transform their properties.
