Patio Formule

D'abord en pieds carrés

patio area = length x widtharea = 12 x 12 = 144.00 sq ft

Volume de beton

cubic yards = square feet x thickness in / 12 / 27final volume = 48.0000 x (1 + 10%/100)

Split L-shaped or curved patios into rectangles, calculate each section, then add waste after the sections are totaled. Estimate step pads, grill pads, fire-pit extensions, and walkway connectors separately.

Patio quote normalizer

Comparez la portee avant le prix du patio

A patio estimate should not stop at concrete volume. Base prep, slope, access, finish, joints, and cleanup often explain why a material-only number and an installed bid feel far apart.

Portée	Contrôle	Pourquoi
Base and grade	Excavation, gravel depth, compaction, slope away from structures.	A correct yardage number can still fail if water or settlement is ignored.
Finish and joints	Broom, smooth, stamped, stained, exposed, control joints, sealer.	Finish scope changes labor and warranty more than concrete volume.
Backyard access	Truck chute reach, wheelbarrow route, buggy, pump, lawn protection.	Patio placement can become a logistics job before it is a material job.
Quote comparison	Material-only cost, installed cost per sq ft, pavers comparison.	Cheap material math should not be compared directly with a full installed bid.

Questions frequentes

Combien de béton ai-je besoin pour un patio de 12x12 ?

A 12 ft by 12 ft patio at 4 inches thick needs about 1.78 cubic yards before waste. With 10% waste, plan about 1.96 cubic yards, or about 89 common 80 lb bags.

Combien de sacs de béton faut-il pour un patio de 20x20 ?

A 20 ft by 20 ft patio at 4 inches thick needs about 5.43 cubic yards with 10% waste. That is about 245 common 80 lb bags, so ready-mix, buggy, pump, or contractor placement should be checked before buying bags.

What thickness should I use for a concrete patio?

Four inches is a common planning starting point for a simple residential patio on a prepared base. Hot tubs, outdoor kitchens, weak soil, thickened edges, structural work, or local code can require a different design.

Does a patio calculator include gravel base and drainage?

No. This calculator estimates concrete material. Gravel base, excavation, compaction, drainage slope, isolation joints, finish, cleanup, and labor should be checked as separate quote lines.

When should I compare a concrete patio with pavers?

Compare pavers when design, modular repair, drainage, or base correction matters. Use the same patio square feet, access path, base scope, demolition, and cleanup assumptions before judging the cheaper quote.
