Free Paver Calculator Widget

The embedded Paver Calculator converts a patio, walkway or driveway area into a paver count, compacted base and bedding sand quantity, plus a materials cost range for concrete, clay brick or natural stone pavers. It suits hardscape suppliers, paver manufacturers, and landscaping how-to sites.

It's a single iframe plus a one-line credit link — free, responsive, no registration, and no ads or tracking scripts on your page.

Why add it to your page

A paver patio is three orders, not one: the pavers, the compacted base under them and the bedding sand. Readers tend to price only the pavers, so the calculator puts all three on one list, which makes the job easier to budget.

What your visitors get

A 12 x 12 ft patio in 6 x 9 in concrete pavers comes back as:

  • Concrete Paver (6x9 in): 423 pavers
  • Compactable base (crusher run): 2.9 tons
  • Bedding sand: 0.66 tons
  • Materials estimate (self-install): $445 – $834

Questions from site owners

Does it cover different paver sizes and materials?

Yes — concrete, clay brick and natural stone pavers in common sizes, each with its own coverage and pricing.

Does it include base and sand, not just paver count?

Yes — compacted base and bedding sand quantities are calculated from the same area, at adjustable depths.

Does it show an installed price as well?

Yes. Next to the materials range it gives an installed range per square foot, so readers can see what hiring the job out would add.
