How do you replace or repair an outside water faucet (spigot)? The faucet is mounted on a brick wall. It leaks everytime it is turned on right by the handle.

Cool

If it is a standard hose spigot, and not a frost-proof, unscrew screw holding on handle and remove handle. Unscrew stem cap and remove cap and stem. Check graphite string packing around stem. That's probably all that it needs...re-pack around the stem. Good Luck!
