How it works

Upload your house photo

Drop your exterior image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Front facade photos with clear siding visibility work best. Any time of day works—the AI adapts to your lighting conditions.

Expect: Simple color changes: 30-40 seconds. Complex multi-color schemes with trim: 45-60 seconds.
Describe the new exterior color

Type what you want: 'change the siding to light grey' or 'paint the house navy blue with white trim.' Be specific about colors and what to change versus what to keep. No need to mark—the AI understands 'siding', 'house', 'trim', and automatically preserves windows, doors, and roof.

Tip: Specify both main color and trim: 'change siding to sage green, keep trim white' for complete control over the look.

Review the repainted house

Check that the new color looks natural with proper shadows, highlights, and depth. Look at how color wraps around corners, how it looks under eaves, and verify trim and windows are preserved. Zoom in on edges.
Refine with markers if needed

If you want to change specific sections like garage door color separately from siding, or if the AI missed a detail, tap markers on those areas and regenerate. Most whole-house repaints work without markers.

Tip: Markers help when you want different colors on different elements: blue siding but grey garage door.

"We were choosing between five exterior paint colors for our home. Used this to see all of them in minutes. Saved us from repainting—the color that looked best in the store looked terrible on our actual house." @Homeowner_Lisa

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.

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.

AI changed trim, windows, or roof when I only wanted siding changed

Why: The prompt wasn't specific about what to preserve. 'Paint the house blue' could mean everything.

Try: change the siding to navy blue, keep all trim, windows, doors, and roof their original colors

Try This →

Tip: Explicitly stating what to keep unchanged prevents unwanted changes: 'keep white trim as is'.

New color looks flat without dimension or shadows

Why: The AI didn't properly maintain depth, highlights, and shadows that give siding realistic appearance.

Try: paint the siding [color], maintain all original shadows, highlights, and dimensional texture

Try This →

Tip: Photos with good lighting that shows texture work better than flat evenly-lit photos.

Color doesn't match what I expected or looks wrong

Why: Color names are subjective. 'Blue' could be navy, sky blue, royal blue, or teal.

Try: Be very specific: 'deep navy blue, almost black' or 'light grey with warm beige undertones'

Try This →

Tip: Add context descriptors: 'modern farmhouse grey', 'coastal cottage blue', 'classic white'.

Corners, edges, or sections look unnatural

Why: The AI had difficulty where siding wraps around architectural features or changes plane.

Try: change siding to [color], ensure color wraps naturally around all corners and architectural details

Try This →

Tip: Photos showing the house straight-on work better than extreme angles.

Garage door or shutters didn't change when I wanted them to

Why: The AI interpreted 'siding' to mean wall surfaces only, not doors or shutters.

Try: change the siding, garage door, and shutters all to navy blue for a uniform look

Try This →

Tip: List every element you want changed: 'siding, garage, shutters, front door'.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the house before changing color?

No! Just describe the color: 'change the siding to light grey' or 'paint the house navy blue.' The AI understands what 'siding' and 'house' mean and automatically preserves trim, windows, doors, and roof. Only use markers if you want different colors on specific elements like garage door separate from siding.

Can I try multiple exterior colors on the same house?

Yes! Upload your house photo once, then try different colors: 'paint the house grey', regenerate, then try 'paint the house navy blue', and so on. Perfect for visualizing multiple exterior paint options before making an expensive commitment to one color.

Will the AI preserve my trim, windows, and architectural details?

Yes! When you say 'change the siding' or 'paint the house', the AI only changes wall surfaces. Trim, windows, doors, shutters, and roof stay their original colors unless you specifically request otherwise. This is the standard expectation for exterior repainting.

What's the best free tool to visualize house paint colors?

EditThisPic lets you change house exterior colors with AI for free, no signup required. Unlike paint brand apps, you can try any color you describe on YOUR actual house with your lighting, landscaping, and roof. Upload a photo, describe the color, and see realistic results in 30 seconds.

Can I create a two-tone exterior color scheme?

Yes! Say 'change the main siding to light grey, paint the gable ends navy blue' or use markers to select specific areas for different colors. The AI can handle multi-color schemes where different surfaces get different colors for architectural interest.
