📖 About Patio Calculator
The Patio Calculator is designed to make calculations simple, fast, and reliable.
Key Benefits:
- Fast and accurate computation
- 100% free with no sign-up required
- Private and secure calculations handled directly in your browser.
To use the Patio Calculator, enter your Unit System, Length / Main Dimension, Width / Secondary Dimension and other values. The calculator instantly computes Surface Area, Total Volume and more. Results update in real time as you change any input — no submit button needed.
How to Use This Calculator
Enter your Unit System — choose from Imperial (feet, inches), Metric (meters), Length / Main Dimension (e.g. 20 in feet / meters), Width / Secondary Dimension (e.g. 15 in feet / meters), Depth / Height / Thickness (e.g. 4 in inches / cm), Waste & Cut Allowance — choose from 0% (Exact), 5% (Standard), 10% (Recommended), and Material Price per Unit (optional) (e.g. 5.00 in ). Measure twice before entering dimensions — small measurement errors scale up significantly in material estimates.
The Formula
The Patio Calculator uses standard formulas to compute accurate results based on your inputs. Simply enter your values and get instant answers.

Understanding Your Result
Deck boards are typically ordered by linear foot, not square foot — account for actual coverage width (5/4×6 decking has 5.5" net face). Add 10% waste for normal layout; 15% for diagonal patterns. IRC requirements: decks attached to the house require a ledger connection designed to handle 40 psf live load plus 10 psf dead load minimum. Footings must extend below frost line; consult local building department for frost depth and permit requirements.
