Concrete Block Wall Estimator

Planning a masonry project? Our cinder block calculator helps you determine exactly how many concrete masonry units (CMUs) you need for your wall. It automatically factors in the standard 3/8-inch mortar joint.

Mortar and Waste Calculation

Never run out of materials mid-project. Along with block count, our calculator estimates the number of 80 lb mortar bags required and automatically adds a 5% waste factor to account for breakages and cuts.
