New · See it on the house

Clients buy what they can picture. Toolie’s visualiser puts the deck you quoted onto a 3D model of their house, lets you check where the sun falls, and even drops it into their yard in augmented reality.

What it does

Read the house from photos. Add one to four site photos and the house (roof form, cladding, openings) is read for you. Every field the AI fills is marked assumed and is not used until you confirm it.
3D deck on the house. The quoted deck (piles, bearers, joists, boards, height, steps and balustrade) is drawn on the confirmed house. Orbit, zoom, pan, and flip between quote options to change the boards.
Sun study. See sun and shade on the deck at 9 am, noon, 3 pm and 6 pm on the longest and shortest days.
AR. “View in your yard” at true scale on iPhone or Android.
Photo render. The client’s own house photo with the new deck painted in.

You approve what the client sees

Nothing goes to a client automatically. The hero image, two angles and the sun study are bundled into the quote and portal only after you approve them, and each image carries an illustration-only note.

The visualiser uses the same 3D engine as the Design Studio, and quote options from options and extras update the picture. See also the deck cost calculator and decking calculator.

Draw the deck first

Draw it to scale in the Design Studio with deck design software built for NZ builders, then show it on the house here. Rough budget? Use the free deck cost calculator.

Common questions

How does the visualiser know what the house looks like?

You add one to four site photos and the house is read from them; every AI-read field is marked assumed and is not used until you confirm it, or you can type the house in.

Can clients see it in their yard?

Yes. AR works with iOS AR Quick Look and Android Scene Viewer at true scale.

What is the sun study?

Sun and shade on the deck at 9 am, noon, 3 pm and 6 pm on the longest and shortest days of the year.

Does the client receive it automatically?

No. You approve the pack before it is added to the quote or portal.
