The Brick Calculator estimates how many bricks are needed to build a wall of a given size. This Brick Calculator helps you calculate the exact quantity of materials needed for your project, saving you from costly over-ordering or frustrating under-ordering. Add a 5–10% waste factor to any result before purchasing.

The formula behind this calculator: Number of bricks = wall area / brick face area, adjusted for mortar joint thickness. As a practical example: A 10ft x 8ft wall using standard bricks typically needs around 700-750 bricks. All results are calculated instantly in your browser — no data is stored or transmitted.
