Over the years, many of our valued clients ask us how much gravel they need for their projects. We thought it would be helpful to create a gravel calculator to help you estimate the amount of gravel you will need for your project.
Whether you are looking to lay a gravel driveway, create a garden path or add some decorative gravel to your landscaping, this gravel calculator can help you determine how much aggregate you will need. Simply enter the dimensions of your project area and we will calculate an estimate of the amount of gravel you will need.

It is important to work out the area coverage by multiplying the length by the width and then the depth of the area to cover. The depth is least important as we typically recommend a depth of 30-50mm coverage with all decorative aggregates, chippings, gravel, slates and pebbles.
We recommend measuring the surface area of your garden with a tape measure. Start by measuring the longest length and width of your garden. If you have any irregular or curved areas, you can break the area down into manageable rectangles and triangles and measure each one separately. Once you have all your measurements, simply multiply the length by the width of each area to calculate the square footage.
The density of gravel varies depending on the type of gravel you select. Smaller pebbles and gravels have a lower density while larger ones have a higher density.
