Estimate how many pavers you need for a patio, path or driveway, including a waste allowance for cuts at the edges.

The math behind it

Patio area = length × width. Paver area = (paver length × width) ÷ 144 to convert to ft².

Pavers = patio area ÷ paver area, plus waste.

Worked Example

12×10 ft patio (120 ft²) with 8×4 in pavers (0.222 ft²) + 10% → ~594 pavers.
