Formula & assumptions

Area = length x width. Asphalt tons = area x depth / 12 x 145 lb/cu ft / 2,000. Cost = area x local installed price per sq ft.

  • Residential asphalt density: 145 lb per cubic foot
  • Default depth: 3 inches
  • Default installed price: $5 per sq ft installed

These assumptions make the estimate easy for search engines and AI answer tools to verify. Replace the default price with your supplier quote for a local estimate.
