Siding Visualizer

Generative output can vary; review the full result before publishing

Siding covers more of a house than any other finish, which makes it one of the most expensive things to get wrong and one of the hardest to imagine from a sample rail. Photograph the elevation and see the profile, the color and the trim across the whole facade, while the prompt asks the AI to keep the roof and windows where they are now.

Changing the walls while windows, meters and downspouts stay put

Siding is the finish that touches everything else on a facade: window casings, corner boards, the electric meter, downspouts, hose bibs, light fixtures and shutters. In a generated result those small items are what goes missing or moves. Use Refine area manually and paint the wall surfaces only, stepping around windows and doors, so everything you did not paint stays exactly as photographed.

Describe the profile and direction as well as the color, because that is what separates siding from paint. 'Horizontal lap siding with a 7 inch exposure in slate blue' reads differently from 'vertical board and batten in off-white', and shakes on the gables over lap below is a common split worth testing. Keep the trim color in the same instruction so corner boards and casings are part of the decision.

Shoot the elevation straight on, with the corners of the house visible so the transition at each corner can be checked. If the roof is staying, it is the color your siding must work with; if it is not, try roof options on the same photo before deciding. For a wider facade change with porch and entry details, the facade project page sets up that scope.

Siding visualizer: compare lap, board and batten, shingle or stone on your house

This siding visualizer shows new siding across the walls in a photo of your own house, so you can compare profiles and colors against the roof and windows you are keeping. Upload one elevation, describe the siding, and check the result against the original. It judges appearance. Quantities, installation details and the condition of the wall behind the siding are things only a site visit settles.

One elevation per photo, square to the wall

Siding is a whole-wall decision, so each wall gets its own run. Stand square to the elevation, far enough back that the corners, the eaves and the foundation line are all visible, and hold the camera level so board lines stay horizontal. A three-quarter shot shows two walls and helps with corners, but the nearer wall gets stretched. Take the front, then the side that faces the street, and run them with the same sentence.

Choose the profile first and the color second

Profile is the part people forget to decide. Lap siding gives long horizontal lines, board and batten gives vertical ones with narrow cover strips, shingle or shake gives a textured, handmade look, and stone or brick veneer gives a heavy base. Run the same color in two profiles before you compare colors, since a profile can change how a house feels more than a shade can. Name the board width if you care, such as narrow lap or wide vertical boards.

Mix two materials on the same elevation

Many houses combine materials: stone on the lower wall, lap above, shingle in the gable. Describe each zone by position, using things already in the photo, for example fieldstone below the window sills, gray lap siding on the main wall, cedar shingle in the gable. When one material belongs in one place only, select Refine area manually and paint that zone; surfaces outside the pink area keep the siding you have.

Check corners, window trim and the foundation line

The edges are where a siding picture goes wrong first. Look at how the siding meets the corner boards, whether the window casings kept their size and color, and whether the line at the foundation is clean. Compare these details with your original photo at full zoom, then pair the siding with a roof decision on the roof page, or test paint alone on the exterior paint page when replacing the cladding is not really on the table.

What to compare with the original

Corner boards and the line where the siding meets the foundation.
Window frames: how many there are, their size and their color.
The line where two materials meet on one wall.
The roof edge and gutters, which should be untouched.

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep my existing roof and windows?: Yes, and you should. Describe only the siding change and the prompt asks the AI to keep everything else as it is; to be sure the roof and windows stay as they are, paint just the walls with Refine area manually, because pixels outside a painted area are kept as they were. That is what makes the result useful: it answers whether the new siding works with the roof you already have rather than with an imaginary one.
Will it show trim and accent colors separately?: It follows what you describe, so asking for a body color with a contrasting trim and a third accent on the gable gives you all three in place. Fine details like corner post width and the exact reveal of each course are illustrative rather than measured.
Does the material texture look real?: Profile and shadow line come through well at elevation scale, which is what a color decision needs. Grain depth on fiber cement, the exact print of a woodgrain vinyl and the way a stone blend repeats are things only a physical sample shows honestly.
Can I hand this to the homeowner?: Yes, labeled as a visualization. It is a picture of an intention, not a specification, and it should sit alongside the sample board and the written scope rather than replacing either of them.
Can I keep my brick and only change the upper walls?: Yes. Say that the brick base stays and name the siding for the upper walls, then paint the upper walls with Refine area manually so the brick is not redrawn. Look at the line where the two meet, since that horizontal transition is where a picture most often blurs or shifts the boundary.
What is the difference between this page and the exterior paint page?: Siding changes the wall material, its profile and its texture, with color as one of the choices. The exterior paint page keeps the siding you have and changes the color of the surfaces you name. If the walls are sound and you only want a new look, paint is the narrower and usually quicker question to answer.
Why did my windows get a different shape or color?: Windows shift when the whole photo is redrawn from a broad instruction. Add a line asking for the window frames to stay exactly as they are, or paint only the walls with Refine area manually. Compare the number of panes and the frame color with the original before you show the result to anyone.
Can I show vertical siding on a house that has horizontal siding now?: Yes. State the new direction and the board type, for example vertical board and batten in dark green, and say the trim stays white. The result shows how the orientation changes the proportion of the house, which is the main reason to try it. Cover strip spacing in the picture is indicative only.
Can I run all four sides of the house at once?: Batch images, a Premium option, applies one instruction to several photos and returns them together, so the same siding can be tried on the front, left, right and rear photos. The painted-area control is available in single-image mode only, so use it to fix one side at a time.
