For remodelers
Short videos for remodeling companies, no filming
For remodelers who want to show the steps of a job before a client lives through them, without filming in anyone's home: what to post, what a month of shorts costs next to a freelancer, and what ViewGum can't do for you yet.
How can a remodeling company make short videos without filming?
ViewGum's 3D Build turns one line, like how a kitchen remodel goes, step by step, into a narrated 3D short for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. It builds the kitchen stage by stage and names each part. Each short is priced before it starts.
The line: “How a kitchen remodel goes, step by step”
What does a 3D Build short look like?
A muted excerpt of a 3D Build short made with ViewGum. It was not made for a remodeling company.
What should a remodeling company post on TikTok, Reels and Shorts?
One true, general thing your customers ask about, one line each. Each is built in 3D, with a narrator.

How a kitchen remodel goes, step by step
Clients living through a remodel want to know what comes next. Walking through demolition, rough-in, cabinets, counters and finish work sets the order before day one.

Why tile cracks over plywood alone
It explains a line in your quote that clients question: the backer board or membrane under the tile. The short shows the floor flexing, then the fix.

How a shower is waterproofed before tile
The waterproofing is hidden once the tile is set, and it is what keeps water out of the wall. A short lets a client see the layer they are paying for.

What happens inside a wall when it is opened up
Opening a wall is where surprises come from. Showing the wiring, pipes and framing inside explains why an estimate can change once work starts.

How a load-bearing wall is taken out safely
It is the question behind most open-plan ideas. Showing temporary walls and a new beam carry the load explains the work before the first meeting.

Why a bathroom fan has to vent outside
A fan that blows into the attic moves the problem instead of solving it. A short follows the damp air out through the roof or the wall.

What rules apply when a remodeling company posts videos?
Each links the body that sets it. Read your short against them before you post.
- Some states require a contractor's license number in all advertising, and California's board counts any electronic transmission as advertising, so add yours to the caption where your state asks. (Contractors State License Board (California))
- Paid or gifted posts about your business must say so under the FTC's Endorsement Guides. (Federal Trade Commission)
What can't ViewGum do for a remodeling company yet?
- It can't use your own photos or footage yet; every short is built in 3D from your line.
- It doesn't post for you: you export an MP4 with post copy for each app.
- It shows a typical job, never your own work.
- It can't show a client's own room, finishes or layout, so it explains the work rather than the design, and it doesn't replace a rendering of their space.
Can I make these shorts from my AI assistant?
Yes. Connect ViewGum once to Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini or another assistant below, then ask for a short in the chat. It shows the price and waits for your yes.
Also 15 terminal agents and code editors, such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor and VS Code.
