What this calculator does
Paver quantity is an area-to-piece calculation. The tool converts each paver's face dimensions from inches to square feet, divides the project area by that coverage and then applies your waste allowance before rounding to whole pieces.
What to know before you use the result
- Use the actual face dimensions that contribute to coverage.
- Patterns, cuts and border layouts can materially change waste.
- Pavers sold by pallet or layer still need to be rounded to the supplier's package quantity.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Mixing inches and feet when calculating paver area.
- Ignoring border or soldier-course pieces that use a different layout.
- Rounding before the waste allowance is applied.
