A drill bit and single piece screw combination for hanging a fascia board on a joist, the drill bit comprising: a drill portion having a first diameter and a cutting point at one end, a counter-bore portion at the other end of the drill portion, the counter-bore portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, a stop portion located adjacent the counter-bore portion on a side opposite to the drill portion, the stop portion having a third diameter larger than the second diameter, and a shank for engagement by a drill; the single piece screw comprising: an unthreaded portion, a threaded portion on one end and a head on the another end, the first diameter of the drill bit being about twice as large as a fourth diameter of the unthreaded portion of the single piece screw, and less than a fifth diameter of the head of the single piece screw, the fifth diameter of the head being smaller than the second diameter of the drill bit, and the counter-bore portion having a cutting depth slightly larger than the head so that the depth of an opening made by the counter bore portion of the drill bit is able to be deeper than the thickness of the head such that the head can be set just below the surface of the fascia board allowing the screw to hang the fascia board in such a manner so as to allow movement of the fascia board by flexure or rocking of the screw head in the oversized opening; wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw is larger in diameter than the threaded portion, tapering down to the threaded portion diameter; the unthreaded shaft portion being able to extend into the joist; and wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw has a beveled portion where it joins the head. a drill portion having a first diameter and a cutting point at one end, a counter-bore portion at the other end of the drill portion, the counter-bore portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, a stop portion located adjacent the counter-bore portion on a side opposite to the drill portion, the stop portion having a third diameter larger than the second diameter, and a shank for engagement by a drill; the single piece screw comprising: an unthreaded portion, a threaded portion on one end and a head on the another end, the first diameter of the drill bit being about twice as large as a fourth diameter of the unthreaded portion of the single piece screw, and less than a fifth diameter of the head of the single piece screw, the fifth diameter of the head being smaller than the second diameter of the drill bit, and the counter-bore portion having a cutting depth slightly larger than the head so that the depth of an opening made by the counter bore portion of the drill bit is able to be deeper than the thickness of the head such that the head can be set just below the surface of the fascia board allowing the screw to hang the fascia board in such a manner so as to allow movement of the fascia board by flexure or rocking of the screw head in the oversized opening; wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw is larger in diameter than the threaded portion, tapering down to the threaded portion diameter; the unthreaded shaft portion being able to extend into the joist; and wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw has a beveled portion where it joins the head. an unthreaded portion, a threaded portion on one end and a head on the another end, the first diameter of the drill bit being about twice as large as a fourth diameter of the unthreaded portion of the single piece screw, and less than a fifth diameter of the head of the single piece screw, the fifth diameter of the head being smaller than the second diameter of the drill bit, and the counter-bore portion having a cutting depth slightly larger than the head so that the depth of an opening made by the counter bore portion of the drill bit is able to be deeper than the thickness of the head such that the head can be set just below the surface of the fascia board allowing the screw to hang the fascia board in such a manner so as to allow movement of the fascia board by flexure or rocking of the screw head in the oversized opening; wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw is larger in diameter than the threaded portion, tapering down to the threaded portion diameter; the unthreaded shaft portion being able to extend into the joist; and wherein the unthreaded shaft portion of the screw has a beveled portion where it joins the head.
