Frequently asked questions
How many pavers do I need for a 10×10 ft patio using 12×12 in pavers?
100 sq ft ÷ 1 sq ft per paver = 100 pavers. Add 10% for waste: order 110 pavers.
How do I calculate pavers for an irregular shape?
Break the area into rectangles, calculate each separately, then add the totals. Always add 10–15% for cuts.
What sand base do I need under pavers?
Lay a 1-inch compacted sand bed over 4–6 inches of compacted crushed gravel. Use the sand and gravel calculators to estimate materials.
