I have a 2 handle brass laundry faucet that leaks around the spout when
it's swiveled from one tub to the other. There appears to be nut holding
the spout to the base. The spout has some play. Can the faucet leak be
repaired ?

If while playing with your spout, it starts to leak, then you have a
problem with your nuts. If you're shaking it more than twice, then you're
playing with it!

If you mean it leaks from the join where it swivels , you may be able
to repair it if it can be dismantled. There may be an o-ring that can
be replaced.

If you have the make and /or model number you can often look it up and
get a part number.

If its a cheap faucet assembly that ccant be dismantled you may have
to replace it.
