Friends-
An indoor water supply valve to an outdoor spicket is leaking around the base of the stem when I open the valve to use the outdoor faucet. Is it most likely from a deteriorated washer or O-ring? Is this corrected by turning off the house water supply, opening the outdoor faucet to drain the pipe and opening the cover around the stem? I apologize if using the wrong terms. Thanks for your time and wisdom.
