How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works on any photo with construction elements—scaffolding, traffic cones, barriers, cranes, construction equipment, caution tape, orange fencing.

Expect: Simple construction removal (cones, barriers): 25-30 seconds. Complex scaffolding or large structures: 45-60 seconds.
Describe what you want

Type 'remove the construction equipment and scaffolding' or 'delete the traffic cones and show the clean street.' The AI identifies construction elements, removes them, and reconstructs the building, street, or landscape behind. No marking needed—the AI understands 'construction,' 'scaffolding,' 'cones.'

Tip: Be specific about what's behind: 'remove scaffolding and show the clean building facade' helps the AI know what to reconstruct.

Real estate photo with visible construction remove all construction equipment, cones, and caution tape from the scene

Travel photo with renovation work visible remove the construction and renovation equipment, restore the natural view

Urban photo with visible crane or machinery remove the construction crane and equipment from the skyline

Building facade with safety netting remove the construction netting and scaffolding, show the clean facade
Try This →

Outdoor scene with orange construction fencing remove the orange construction fencing and barriers, open up the view
Try This →
Review the result

Check that all construction elements are gone and the scene looks natural. Zoom in on architectural details or ground areas to verify the reconstruction looks realistic and matches the surrounding context.
Refine if needed (optional)

If some construction remains or the reconstruction looks off, try 'remove all remaining construction and fill naturally' or tap markers on stubborn elements and regenerate.

Tip: For complex scaffolding covering large areas, Smart mode (4 credits) uses advanced reconstruction for more realistic results.

"Finally visited a famous landmark and it was covered in scaffolding for renovation. This removed it all and showed the building as it should look. Saved my once-in-a-lifetime photo." @WorldTraveler

Famous landmark with scaffolding during renovation

Once-in-a-lifetime travel photo at an iconic landmark, but the entire front was covered in scaffolding for renovation. AI removed it all and revealed the building's architecture.

Prompt: remove the scaffolding and show the clean building underneath

Street photo with traffic cones and construction barriers

Beautiful urban street scene but orange traffic cones and plastic barriers were set up for roadwork. One prompt removed all construction elements and revealed the clean street.

Prompt: delete the traffic cones and construction barriers, show the clean street

If something looks off

Building or structure looks fake or unrealistic where scaffolding was

Why: The AI struggled to accurately reconstruct complex architectural details hidden behind scaffolding, especially ornate or unique building features.

Try: remove scaffolding and reconstruct the building facade accurately, match surrounding architectural style

Try This →

Tip: Try Smart mode (4 credits) for complex architecture. It uses better inference to reconstruct hidden details realistically.

Some construction elements still visible

Why: The AI missed small items like signs, individual cones, or parts of barriers that blend with the background.

Try: tap marker on each remaining construction item, then 'remove all of these construction elements'

Try This →

Tip: Markers target stubborn small items the AI overlooked on the first pass.

Colors or textures don't match after removal

Why: The reconstructed area (wall, pavement, etc.) may have different color, weathering, or texture than the surrounding visible parts.

Try: remove construction but match the exact colors and textures of the surrounding building/street

Try This →

Tip: 'Match exact colors' helps ensure consistent appearance across the reconstructed area.

AI removed permanent fixtures thinking they were construction

Why: The AI over-interpreted 'construction' and removed legitimate street furniture, signs, or architectural elements.

Try: remove only temporary construction equipment and barriers, keep permanent fixtures

Try This →

Tip: 'Temporary construction' distinguishes from permanent street elements you want to keep.

Large scaffolding left obvious gaps or artifacts

Why: Extensive scaffolding covering large building areas creates complex reconstruction challenges, especially with limited visible context.

Try: remove scaffolding and reconstruct building facade naturally, infer architectural details from visible sections

Try This →

Tip: When scaffolding covers most of a building, the AI infers from visible parts. Results vary based on how much is hidden.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the construction elements before describing them?

No. Just type 'remove the construction equipment' or 'delete the scaffolding' and the AI identifies and removes them automatically. Markers are only needed for small or camouflaged items the AI misses, or when you want to be very specific about what to remove vs what to keep.

What types of construction can this remove?

Scaffolding, traffic cones, construction barriers, orange safety fencing, caution tape, cranes, construction equipment, machinery, portable signs, safety netting, and temporary structures. Basically any visible construction elements that are temporary additions to a scene.

Will the building or scene look realistic after scaffolding removal?

In most cases, yes. The AI reconstructs architecture based on visible surrounding context. Simple buildings work very well. Ornate or unique architecture may need Smart mode for better reconstruction. Results depend on how much of the structure is hidden behind scaffolding.

Can this work for real estate photos with construction nearby?

Absolutely. Use 'remove all construction equipment, cones, and barriers from the scene' to clean up property photos. This is perfect for real estate where nearby construction work makes properties look less appealing.

What if the entire landmark is covered in scaffolding?

The AI can still work, but results depend on visible context. If some of the building is visible, the AI infers the rest. For completely covered structures, try Smart mode which uses advanced reasoning to reconstruct. Results vary—the more hidden, the harder to reconstruct perfectly.
