Leaking/weeping water on connection to stop tap

[Ev0]

The wife noticed last night that there seems to be a small leak under the kitchen sink at the connection where the water pipe connects to the isolation tap.

It's not much, more like a weep than flowing water, but needs sorting.

Was going to just have a go at tightening up the connection a little but is there anything else I should/shouldn't do before calling out a plumber?

Thanks!

Know where the stop **** is in the road and make sure it works.

lol yeah got that sorted already just in case Just a pain as it's a relatively new build (2.5 years old).

Mine weeps like Gwyneth Paltrow at the Oscars. I'm going to just get it replaced with a lever valve.

It's not the tap bit itself, just where the whole thing fixes to the main pipe, and I'm clueless with this stuff

Take out this cover. Live with leak for required amount of time to meet T&Cs. Call them out.

It's not a leak, it's a "Water Feature".
