AI Deck Visualizer

How it works

1. 1

   Upload your backyard photo

   Drop a photo of your backyard into EditThisPic. Best results come from shots taken from the yard looking back at the house, showing where the deck would connect. Include the back door area and surrounding yard. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

   Expect: Simple single-level deck: 25-35 seconds. Multi-level or complex features: may need 1-2 refinements.

   Describe the deck you want

   Type your instruction: 'add a composite deck in dark walnut extending from the back door with white cable railing' or 'build a two-tier cedar deck with steps down to the yard.' Specify the material, color, railing style, and size for best results. No marking needed — the AI understands the layout from your photo.

   Tip: Mentioning the connection point — 'extending from the sliding glass door' — tells the AI exactly where the deck should attach to the house.

   Copy one of these to get started:

   Standard composite deck add a 16x20 Trex composite deck in dark walnut color extending from the back door with white vinyl railing and steps down to the yard

   Review the visualization

   Check that the deck connects properly to the house, the material and railing look right, and the scale fits your yard. Use the before/after slider to compare the original backyard.

   Refine with markers if needed

   If the deck placement is off or the AI changed the wrong area, tap markers where you want the deck positioned and regenerate. This is optional — most deck additions work without markers.

   Tip: Markers help when you want the deck in a specific part of the yard, like 'only on the left side next to the kitchen door.'
