Try: Length=10, Width=10, Waste=10, Paver size=12x12, Price per paver=0.9, Units=ft → 100.00 ft², 10%, 111 pavers, 12, $99.90

How to use

Enter the patio length and width and your paver size. The calculator allows for the ~3/8-inch joint and a 10% waste margin, then divides by the paver coverage (a 12×12 inch paver is 1 ft²; a 4×8 is about 0.22 ft²).

FAQ

Does the calculator include the sand joints?

Yes — it builds in roughly a 3/8-inch joint so the count reflects real laid coverage, not just the bare paver face.

How much waste for a curved patio?

Curves and borders waste more — budget 15% instead of 10%.

Should I count edge pavers separately?

No, the area method covers them; just keep the extra waste for cuts.
