Why this site exists
Yard Calculator is an independently maintained personal project for U.S. homeowners planning garden and landscape work. It brings common project calculations together so you can turn measurements into a clear estimate before buying materials or starting a job.
How to use the estimates
Each calculator shows its inputs, units, assumptions, formula and a worked example. Results depend on the measurements and product-specific values entered or shown in the selected preset. Check the label or supplier specification for the material you plan to use, and follow local guidance where it applies.
The tools help with planning arithmetic. They do not determine structural safety, drainage design, permits, code compliance, product suitability or contractor pricing.
