Planning estimate only. Verify product dimensions, manufacturer coverage, local requirements and field conditions before purchasing.

How paver quantity is estimated

Project area is divided by the face area of one paver, then the waste allowance is added and the result is rounded up.

pavers = project area ÷ paver face area × (1 + waste %)

Patterns, cuts and border layouts may require additional material.

Paver Calculator FAQ

Should I include joint spacing?

For a closer estimate, use the installed module dimensions if your layout includes consistent joints.

How much waste should I add?

Simple layouts may need less waste than diagonal or heavily cut patterns.

Does this include paver base or sand?

No. Base aggregate and bedding sand should be estimated separately.
