How it works

Upload your cleaning photo

Drop your after-cleaning photo into EditThisPic. Best results come from photos taken from the same angle as your 'before' shot, with good lighting so the clean surfaces are visible. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Standard cleaning enhancement: 20-30 seconds. Detailed surface work: may need 1-2 refinements.
Describe the enhancement you want

Type your instruction: 'brighten the floors and make the countertops look gleaming' or 'enhance the tile grout to look fresh white.' Be specific about which surfaces to enhance. No marking needed — the AI understands cleaning contexts.

Tip: Mention specific surfaces: 'make the granite countertop shine' works better than 'make it look clean' because the AI targets the right material.

Copy one of these to get started:

Bathroom tile and grout restoration make the tile grout lines look fresh white and clean, enhance the tile surface to appear polished and streak-free
Try This →

Office or commercial space make the office floor look freshly waxed and reflective, brighten the desk surfaces and clean up any visible dust or marks

Move-out deep clean enhance the entire room to look move-in ready — spotless floors, clean walls, gleaming fixtures, no marks or scuffs visible
Try This →

Exterior pressure wash result make the concrete driveway look freshly pressure washed — bright, even color with no algae stains or dark patches remaining
Try This →
Review the result

Check that surfaces look naturally clean — not artificially glossy. Compare the enhanced photo against your before shot to see the contrast. The best before/afters show real improvement without looking fake.
Refine with markers if needed

If the AI enhanced the wrong surface or missed a spot, tap markers on the specific area and regenerate. This is optional — most cleaning enhancements work without markers.

Tip: Use markers when you want to enhance just one surface, like the grout lines, without changing everything else.

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt

Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Surfaces look artificially glossy or plastic

Why: The AI over-enhanced the shine, making natural materials look synthetic.

Try:

Regenerate with 'make the surfaces look naturally clean and bright, not artificially glossy — maintain realistic material texture'

Try This →

Tip: Adding 'realistic material texture' tells the AI to keep surfaces looking like real stone, wood, or tile instead of plastic.

Enhancement looks uneven across the room

Why: The AI focused on one area and left other surfaces looking dull by comparison.

Try: List every surface: 'brighten the floor, countertops, appliances, and fixtures evenly throughout the room'

Try This →

Tip: Listing each surface prevents the AI from picking favorites. Even a quick 'all surfaces' helps distribute the enhancement.

Colors look oversaturated or unnatural

Why: The AI boosted color intensity too aggressively when trying to make surfaces look clean.

Try: Add 'keep natural color tones' to your prompt: 'make the tile look clean and bright while keeping natural color tones'

Try This →

Tip: Clean surfaces should look bright, not vivid. Specifying 'natural tones' prevents the AI from cranking up saturation.

Photo still looks flat despite enhancement

Why: The original photo had poor lighting, which the AI couldn't fully compensate for.

Try:

Add lighting direction: 'brighten the room as if natural daylight is coming through the windows, enhance the surfaces to reflect that light'

Try This →

Tip: Cleaning photos taken near windows or with overhead lights on give the AI more to work with than dim shots.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the areas I cleaned before describing the enhancement?

No! Just describe what you want: 'make the countertops gleam and the floor look spotless.' The AI understands cleaning contexts and targets the right surfaces. Only use markers if the AI enhances the wrong area — like brightening the walls when you wanted the floor.

Can I use these photos for my cleaning business marketing?

Yes. Download the enhanced photo and use it anywhere — Google Business, Instagram, Facebook, your website, flyers, or proposals. There's no watermark and no usage restrictions. Many cleaning companies use EditThisPic to build their portfolio.

Is there a free tool for creating cleaning before/after photos without login?

Yes. EditThisPic is free to try with no account needed. Upload your photo, describe the enhancement, and download the result in 30 seconds. One free edit per week, credit packs from $1.99 for creating full portfolios.

How do I make my cleaning results look more dramatic in photos?

Take your before photo from the exact same angle and distance as your after photo. Use consistent lighting. Then upload the after photo to EditThisPic and enhance specific surfaces — gleaming countertops, bright grout, spotless floors. The consistency between angles makes the transformation obvious.

Does it work for commercial cleaning portfolios?

Yes. Office floors, warehouse concrete, commercial kitchens, restrooms — the AI enhances any surface. Specify the material ('make the VCT floor look freshly waxed' or 'enhance the commercial kitchen stainless steel') for best results.

Can I enhance carpet cleaning photos specifically?

Yes. Tell the AI exactly what to improve: 'make the carpet fibers look fluffy and restored, remove remaining stain shadows.' The AI understands carpet texture and can brighten colors while making fibers look plush and clean.

What's the best way to photograph cleaning results?

Shoot from the same position as your before photo. Turn on all lights. Open blinds for natural light. Take the photo at eye level for rooms, or straight down for floors. Good lighting in the original photo gives the AI more detail to enhance.

Can I enhance multiple rooms from the same cleaning job?

Yes. Upload each room photo separately and enhance them individually. Each gets its own prompt, so you can target different surfaces — granite in the kitchen, grout in the bathroom, hardwood in the living room.
