How this calculator works

Enter your shape and dimensions in feet. Add the depth in inches. The calculator multiplies them out and converts to bag, then adds 10% overage for waste — the industry standard for mortar.

Cost shown is a US national average ($8 per bag). Regional pricing pages are coming soon.
