Estimates only

The calculators and information on YardCompass are provided for general informational and planning purposes only. Results are estimates based on common industry averages for material coverage, yields, and densities. We make no guarantee that any result is accurate, complete, or suitable for your specific project.

Not professional advice

YardCompass does not provide engineering, construction, structural, financial, or legal advice, and our tools are not a substitute for a qualified professional. For structural or load-bearing work, drainage, permits, or anything safety-critical, consult a licensed engineer, architect, or contractor and follow your local building codes.

Verify before you buy or build

Real products vary by brand, grade, moisture, compaction, and site conditions, and bag, roll, and pallet sizes differ between suppliers. Always confirm final quantities, coverage, and specifications with your supplier or the manufacturer before ordering, and add extra for waste, offcuts, and settling. You are responsible for your own measurements.

No warranty

This site and its tools are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or uninterrupted availability.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, YardCompass and its authors will not be liable for any loss, cost, injury, or damage — whether direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential — arising from your use of, or reliance on, these calculators or any information on this site. By using YardCompass you accept that the final responsibility for what you measure, order, and build is entirely yours, and that you use the site at your own risk.

Advertising and affiliate links

YardCompass is supported by advertising and may display ads through Google AdSense and similar networks. We may also include affiliate links and could earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Advertising and affiliate relationships never change the numbers a calculator produces.

Third-party links

We sometimes link to third-party websites for convenience. We don’t control and aren’t responsible for their content, accuracy, products, or practices.

Changes

We may update, correct, or change the calculators and content at any time without notice. See our privacy policy for how we handle data.
