- Divide the brick or paver’s surface area by 144 to convert to square feet.
- Divide the total paving area by the paver’s surface area.
What gravel goes under pavers?
Medium gravel is the most popular choice for a paver base. It compacts well but not as tightly as fine gravel, leaving enough room for water to drain through. Medium gravel is the middle ground in terms of support and drainage, making it ideal for regular or loamy soil with an adequate amount of drainage.
