On a purely mathematical level, you should need 123.75. But if you actually want to put down your own patio, it might make sense to buy a few (or more than a few) extra just in case.
What To Expect When Considering Patio Pavers?
Patio pavers can provide an easy alternative to actually installing a full-blown professional outdoor patio. However, you need to know what you are getting into before deciding to use them. Patio pavers come in many different materials and have different installation instructions. Exactly how you install them and how much work that will need to be done will rely on the type of pavers you purchase. You can get interlocking wood, metal or plastic pavers. You can even get pavers made from recycled tire rubber, or pavers made from manmade composites. This is mostly an aesthetic choice. The first thing to understand is that all of these pavers will only be as flat and solid as the ground underneath of them. Some manufactures actually suggest that you dig fourteen inches down and lay a flat concrete surface to act as the foundation. This may not be necessary for the pavers you purchase, however. The best policy here is to dig a few inches down and flatten the area with a rented dirt packer. Depending on the manufacturers instructions, you will probably have to do this for each layer you add. Sometimes sand and gravel have to be added on top of the soil. You will want to put some type of tarp or plastic sheeting underneath of the pavers in order to prevent moisture from coming up through the pavers and damaging them over time. Controlling the moisture that comes in contact with your pavers will be a constant fight. You may notice, perhaps while purchasing your pavers, that there are probably going to be color discrepancies within the batches. This is natural and cannot be avoided. Just try to work the differing colors into each other to make it less noticeable. The last thing to consider is how you will treat the edge of the pavers. The easiest way will be to buy extra pavers and cut them down into pieces that are a few inches wide and line them perpendicular to the pattern that you have already established. However, if this is not satisfactory, you could find stone or bricks and have them cut to specification to line the edges. Patio pavers are a great time saver. Unfortunately, some people do not realize that you do not just purchase them and lay them outside. There is a fair amount of work that must be done, even with their intrinsic convenience.

Pavers can be installed on your driveway, on a walkway, and on a patio. Pavers come in a variety of patterns, colors and styles to suit most any design idea.

Brick Pavers Help Make a Patio Attractive?
If you are planning to build a patio, you will want to familiarize yourself with brick pavers, as these are sturdy and attractive basic building blocks for major construction products. In the story of the Three Little Pigs, it’s the one who builds with brick who has a house at the end of the tale. Invent the money and energy into laying out a patio this way, and you will have something for neighbors to admire for years to come. There are many different types of brick pavers, both in terms of shape and material. They can be made of stone, concrete or clay, with stone the least durable and most difficult to install. Clay pavers, on the other hand, last very well and require little maintenance. Some pavers are simply rectangular blocks, but there are also pieces with more complicated shapes, and sometimes they interlock. One popular design is a large octogon with a small square on the top. If you are building with these, buy a few extra, since these particular pavers, when painted white and decorated as snowmen, make wonderful Christmas gifts. After you have completed your patio, there are other decisions that you will need to make. Do you want the bricks to look glossy or natural? It’s best to put a protective coating on the bricks every couple of years, but what kind of finish you get will depend upon the sort of effect you are going for. Before you can actually apply the sealer, you will first need to clean the patio, which you can do with a high-pressure hose, some cleanser and a scrub brush. Once the bricks are thoroughly clean, you’ll need to wait until they have tried before you can add the sealer. When you do, make sure that you are brushing in such a way that the sealer does not bubble up; you don’t want to go back and do it all over again. Filling a patio with brick pavers takes a little time and planning, but if it’s done properly, the end result will be a beautiful area of the yard that can be enjoyed far into the future.
