About the Sand Calculator for Pavers

Installing pavers correctly requires a precise layer of bedding sand — typically 1 inch deep — beneath each paver to ensure a level, stable, and long-lasting surface. Our sand calculator for pavers computes the exact volume and weight of coarse sand needed based on the total paver area and desired sand bed depth. Proper sand bedding prevents paver shifting, cracking, and uneven settling over time. Whether you are laying a patio, driveway, pathway, or pool deck with concrete or natural stone pavers, this calculator ensures you purchase the correct amount of bedding sand. Input your project dimensions and get instant results in cubic feet, cubic yards, and tonnes.
