Faucets drip when they are not turned off. If they still drip when turned off, there is a minor plumbing problem. When they still run when they are turned off, there is the potentially a big problem - not unsolvable but expensive in the long run and better to figure out and fix.

Common Plumbing Problems

Common plumbing problems have to do with feed lines, shutoffs, faucets and drains. Occasionally, freezing plays a part, or in the case of a water heater, an element burns out and the hot water turns cold. That' s not really a plumbing problem.
