Paver Calculator

Work out pavers needed for a patio or walkway.

Enter your area dimensions and pick a paver size to see how many pavers you need.

How this calculation works

This paver calculator estimates how many pavers you need for a patio, walkway, or driveway. We multiply length by width for the area, add 5% for waste, then divide by the square footage of your chosen paver size.

Smaller pavers need more pieces; large-format pavers need fewer. The cost estimate uses about $5 per square foot for the pavers themselves — base gravel and sand are extra.

For herringbone or other angled patterns, increase the waste allowance to about 10%. Always order from the same batch to keep color consistent.
