Tangshan Jiayuan Metalwork offers instructions on the proper use of drywall screws. Start with selecting the right drive type (Phillips or square) and length (usually 1/8” longer than the drywall thickness). Sometimes self-tapping screws eliminate the need to pre-drill metal framing. Place screws 6-8” apart along each stud, starting from the center of the panel outward to mitigate buckling. It is best to use a power drill with a clutch setting so that over-driving does not occur, as it may ruin the drywall. For paper-faced ceilings, ensure screws are slightly countersunk without piercing the paper face. For estimates on the pricing of drywall screws, get in touch with our team.
