Paver calculator

Estimate the number of rectangular pavers to purchase using project size, actual paver face dimensions, joint width, and cut waste.

Calculation assumptions
  • The project is a rectangle with uniform coverage and one joint between adjacent pavers.
  • Paver dimensions are actual face dimensions; edge restraint and border courses are not added separately.
  • The selected 10% overage covers ordinary cuts, pattern loss, and breakage.

Surface-unit math

How paver quantity is calculated

1

Project area

length × width gives the rectangular paved area.

2

Installed module

(paver length + joint) × (paver width + joint).

3

Whole-unit order

Divide area by module coverage, add cut waste, then round up.

Measurement boundary

Count field pavers, then verify the pattern

Use actual face dimensions and the intended joint. Borders, soldier courses, curves, diagonals, mixed-size patterns, and manufacturer bundle quantities can change the final order.

Layout estimate

This calculator does not design the pavement base, drainage, slope, edge restraint, or load capacity.
