Replace the washers in your faucets. A bad washer allows the water to constantly drip out of the spout. Sometimes, if you have a shower head connected above, the "switch" to change from shower to faucet allows water from the shower head to drop back into the spout. This is normal.

A drip is usually caused by a worn washer or packing in the hot/cold water handles. Unless you're handly with plumbing, it's best to call a plumber for the repair.

The washers on the valves are worn out. Call a handyman before a plumber.

It`s your valvue..there a ball that flips open and closed when you turn handle..when you get mineral deposits it doesnt allow the ball to turn off completely...also the deposits eat away at the spout and ball it self if it is PLASTIC. OR RUBBER

If you remove the water faucet and handles, there will be rubber "O"-Rings on the "stem of the handles", replace those and it should stop!
You'll need a screw driver and a wrench, (probably a 7/16th or a cresent wrench)

Check where is the point of leakage is located. Dry it and apply some water tight sealant. Like epoxy or silicon sealant.
