I assume the water is leaking from where the water comes out of when opening the tap. Either the washer needs to be replaced or the seat needs to be reseated. If all else fails, time to replace the whole tap.

How to Fix a Leak on a Pipe?
A small leak might appear harmless and like it does not require your immediate attention. Besides costing you dollars in your water bill, it is also not the best green decision to ignore it. A small leak may turn into a nightmare if ignored, and cost you hundreds of dollars in damages, in the case of flooding a room. It is advisable to fix leaks as soon as you discover them. You can call a plumber to do the job, or do it yourself, if you are handy. If you opt for the most cost efficient way to fix it - assuming you are handy and know what you are doing - these are a few recommendations on how to fix a leak on a pipe. The first and obvious thing is to turn off the water. Then, you must relieve the pressure in the pipe by opening the faucets, or bleeding valves, so there is no water inside. Next, place a piece of rubber over the leak and clamp it tight. Once you have the materials to permanently fix the leak (kits are sold at home improvement centers), proceed to soak with water the fiberglass tape that comes in the kit to activate it. Place it over the leak, wrap it around very well, so it is flushed with the pipe, and smooth. This tape must be allowed to dry as recommended before turning on the water. This is a very important step so it cures and bonds to the pipe. On pipes that are made of PVC or plastic, you can cut the pipe, and place a compressed coupling tightening it well and sealing it on the sides. If the job involves the need to fix a leak that is located where the fitting is, then you will have to use a blend of epoxy, prepare it, and apply it to the area. Then, let it dry before turning the water on. To fix leaks in different sections of the pipe at once might not be recommended, as you might need to replace the whole pipe, which seems to be in poor shape. Call a professional if the job is too big for you to handle it; it will save you money in the end.
