leaky tub faucet

Tags: Plumbing
I have a one handle shower knob and lately I've noticed that the tub faucet drips water. What could be causing this? How simple is this to fix or do I need to call in a plumber? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You can fix most items if you have the tools and a few mechanical skills. If you don't, then call a plumber. But before you do, take a trip to one of the large warehouse hardware stores, you can find books on most home plumbing repairs. You can look up the faucet and see if you have the skills or tools to complete the job.

Good Luck
