Show homeowners their pool deck and landscaping before the crew mobilizes
Photograph the backyard with the pool footprint staked out, or an existing pool due for a surround refresh. Makeover generates a photorealistic preview of the decking, coping, plantings, and lighting in under 10 seconds — their own yard, not a builder's catalogue photo of someone else's pool.

What is a pool landscaping preview preview?
A pool landscaping preview tool uses AI to generate a photorealistic image of the decking, coping, plantings, and hardscape surrounding a pool before any of it gets installed. Upload a photo of the backyard — a staked-out footprint for a new pool or an existing pool due for a surround refresh — and the tool produces a transformed version showing the proposed travertine, paver, or stamped-concrete decking, plus plant beds, lighting, and water features applied to the actual property. Pool builders and outdoor living contractors use this in the design consultation to lock material selections before the hardscape crew is scheduled.
Why it matters
The pool shell gets approved fast — homeowners can picture a hole full of water. What stalls the job is everything around it: travertine or pavers or stamped concrete for the decking, a plain lawn edge or a full planting bed, a sun shelf that eats into the yard or leaves room to spare. That decision alone can swing the surround budget by $10–$25 per square foot, and hardscape crews can't pour until it's made. A photorealistic preview of the actual backyard turns a stalled materials conversation into a same-meeting decision, so the pour schedule doesn't slip behind the excavation crew that already broke ground.
Who uses this
Pool builders' design consultants presenting the surround package alongside the shell and equipment package. Landscape architects and hardscape contractors bidding decking, coping, and planting separately from the pool contractor. Outdoor living companies bundling the pool with a cabana, pergola, or outdoor kitchen. Pool renovation specialists whose scope is limited to re-decking and re-landscaping around an existing shell that isn't being touched.
Heard this from a homeowner?
They approved the pool shape and equipment package weeks ago but still haven't picked decking — travertine, pavers, or stamped concrete — because a sample board propped against the fence doesn't show it wrapping their actual pool.
They ask whether the planting bed will block the sightline from the kitchen window to the pool, and a plan drawn from above can't answer that — so you're stuck asking them to picture it themselves.
They scale back the sun shelf and cabana mid-design because they're afraid the finished layout will crowd the rest of the yard — cutting scope instead of seeing that it actually fits.
How pool landscaping preview previews work
Three steps. Under 10 seconds. No design skills needed.
Photograph the backyard
Shoot the staked-out pool footprint for new construction, or the existing pool if you're only redoing the surround. A phone camera from the patio or back door works.
AI generates the surround preview
The model applies decking material, coping profile, plant beds, lighting, and water features to the actual yard while preserving the house facade, fence lines, and property boundaries.
Present in the design consultation
Their own backyard, decked and landscaped. The materials conversation closes in that meeting instead of dragging into a second sample-board visit.
