Home Fixers: How to save time with this screw

Stop fiddling around with fasteners that don’t do the job and check out this home fixers tip.

My go-to fastener from framing to the finer things is Spax screws. Versatile—they can be used in wood, concrete, masonry and more—they also all have the same driver tip. This alone is an enormous time saver.

Incredibly well-designed serrated leading edges mean most holes don’t require a pilot hole. Spax screws can be used anywhere from framing to decks to pergola to plywood to woodworking and more.

This type of screw will save you time because:

1. They can be used in wood, concrete, masonry and more.
2. Most holes don’t require a pilot hole.
3. They can be used anywhere from framing to decks to pergola to plywood to woodworking and more.
4. They also all have the same driver tip.

DIY and home improvement projects are challenging enough without having to fiddle around with fasteners that don’t do the job.
