How this estimate works

Paver count = square feet × (1 + cutting allowance ÷ 100) ÷ individual paver coverage, rounded up.

Divide paved area by coverage per piece, then apply a separate cutting allowance.

A paver project includes distinct base, bedding, surface, edge, and joint materials. Installed compacted depth and loose delivered volume are different values.

Before you order

  • Use a base specification suited to traffic, soil, and climate.
  • Ask for product coverage and the loose-to-compacted factor.
  • Measure exposed edges and account for pattern cuts.

Planning estimates can differ from delivered or installed quantities.
