To identify your faucet, check how the handle moves. Ball faucets rotate and wiggle like a joystick[2]. Disc faucets lift and rotate but do not tilt[2]. Compression faucets, common in older designs, require multiple turns and physical force to shut off[2]. Cartridge types are often identified by a decorative cap[1]. Drips are usually caused by worn washers, O-rings, or damaged valve seats[1][5].
For repairs, keep a wrench, screwdriver, and replacement parts on hand[1]. If the leak persists after replacing seals or the faucet shows heavy corrosion, it is often more practical to replace the entire unit[1].
