Design the Exterior of Your Home

Before We Even Lift a Hammer

Welcome to the Thrush & Son Home Exterior Design Center.

Here you can preview real products we install every day—siding, roofing, windows, doors, and trim—right on a photo of your home or a similar style. Try out new color combinations, compare classic and modern looks, and dial in the exact style you want before the first crew ever pulls into your driveway. This tool is built to help you see it, tweak it, and love it long before installation begins.

Designing a home exterior can feel overwhelming, but our tools simplify the entire process. Whether you’re exploring new siding colors, comparing roofing styles, or testing trim combinations, the visualizer lets you see every idea come to life instantly. This reduces guesswork, helps you make confident decisions, and turns a big renovation into a clear, manageable plan that actually feels exciting instead of stressful.

Our home exterior design center gives you the freedom to explore products, styles, and colors long before installation begins, so you can arrive at your appointment with a clear vision of what you want your home to look like.

Ready to take the next step? Explore the design center, save your favorite look, and then connect with Thrush & Son to turn your design into a real project. Every project designed in our home exterior design center helps our team understand your vision more clearly during your consultation.

How to Use Our Home Visualizer Tool

Our home exterior design center is powered by advanced Renoworks visualization technology, giving you realistic previews of your future exterior before any work begins.

Start by getting a good base image of your home ready for design:

  • Upload a photo: Choose a clear, front-facing photo of your home in .jpg or .png format. For best results, use a picture taken in good daylight with as few obstructions (cars, trash cans, heavy shadows) as possible.
  • No photo handy? You can also select from sample homes inside the visualizer to get ideas and start experimenting with colors and materials right away.

Next, tell the tool which parts of the home you want to design:

  • Draw outlines: Use the built-in tools to trace key areas such as siding, roofing, doors, windows, trim, or accents so products apply only where you want them.
  • Refine your shapes: Adjust points and edges until the outlined areas match your home. The more accurate the outline, the more realistic the preview will look.
  • Select surfaces: Click on the highlighted areas to work on one section at a time—this keeps your design organized and easy to manage.

This is where the fun begins—bring your ideas to life:

  • Browse products: Explore available siding profiles, shingle styles, colors, window and door options, and more inside the visualizer’s product library.
  • Apply to your home: Click an outlined surface, choose a product and color, and the visualizer will render it directly onto your image.
  • Try different combinations: Swap colors and materials as often as you’d like to compare traditional looks, bold modern palettes, or anything in between.
  • Fine-tune details: Zoom in to adjust trim, accents, and smaller features so your final design feels complete and intentional.

Once you’ve created a design you love:

  • Save your project: Keep your favorite versions so you can compare options or revisit them later.
  • Share with our team: Save screenshots or exported images and share them with Thrush & Son so we can reference your preferred colors and styles during your consultation.
  • Use photos taken in natural, even lighting for the most realistic previews.
  • Don’t be afraid to experiment—there’s no limit to how many designs you can try.
  • Bring your saved designs to your Thrush & Son appointment so we can help turn your favorite look into a real project.
