Should be a straightforward DIY job if you know anyone capable. failing that, look for a plumber. Where is the leak? I'd be surprised if it can't be repaired.

WE have discovered that the leak is in fact a small pin sized hole in the basin of the sink. Can it be repaired?

You could try and seal the patch from behind with an expoxy repair putty- these products are quite effective on sealing leaks in pipework, radiators and the like so should be worth a shot. Important to make sure that the metal is clean and degreased before you apply the putty.

Woodies or any DIY store

A crude cheap fix is to drill a small hole and put a flat head screw through with a washer on the back

You can buy metal putty in car motor factors.
It will bond to the steel and sort the hole.
