Go back under the sink and slowly turn both the hot and cold water shut-off valves counter-clockwise to restore the water supply. Return to the faucet, ensure the handle is in the off position, and check for any leaks around the base. Then, slowly turn the handle on and test both the hot and cold water flow. Check again for leaks while the water is running. Turn the faucet off and confirm that the original leak has been resolved.
