Take the cartridge to the home center or hardware store to find a replacement. A leaking kitchen or bathroom faucet not only wastes water, but the endless dripping could test any homeowner’s patience. Great news, learning how to fix a leaky faucet can be a simple fix.
Be sure to reconnect the drain linkage when installing the new faucet. Remove the old faucet assembly from sink, then the clean sink around the faucet mounting area. A new faucet can work wonders for the appearance of your fixtures and will also eliminate all the leaks, drips and other problems you may have had with your old faucet. If your house is newly built, you may have pipes that are too small to allow the water to pass through them properly.
Most bathroom faucets that have two handles are cartridge-style faucets. Each faucet handle (hot and cold) has its own cartridge, a valve that turns with the handle to control the flow of water into the faucet spout.

You can also review the installation manual to make sure your faucet is installed correctly. Once you have taken all the parts out, carefully inspect them to confirm what needs to be replaced to fix the leaking faucet. Faucets are mechanical devices that see constant use, so they don't last forever.
Beneath the decorative knob, you will find screws that fasten the handle to the faucet stem. Use your flat-head to unscrew, then carefully remove the handle. If necessary, you can use penetrating oil to loosen the handle so that it lifts easily off of the stem.
