**Tighten the Faucet**: Sometimes, it’s as simple as tightening the faucet handles. Grab a wrench and give them a little twist. If that doesn’t do the trick, it might be time to look at the washer.

**Replace the Washer**: If you’re feeling a bit handy, turn off the water supply and take apart the faucet. Most leaks are caused by worn-out washers. Just pop in a new one, and you should be good to go!

**Use Plumber’s Tape**: If the leak is coming from the threads, try wrapping some plumber's tape around the threads of the faucet. It can help create a better seal and stop that annoying drip.
