An apparatus for preventing water leak damage from a bath fixture, the apparatus comprising a first side wall, a second side wall, a first end wall, a second end wall, a top wall, a bottom wall sloping downwardly to an outlet wherein the first and second side walls, the first and second end walls, the top wall, and the bottom wall define a compartment therebetween and wherein the water source pipes of the bath fixture extend upwardly through the bottom wall. The apparatus further includes a waterproof covering that covers the entire inside surfaces of the compartment, and a drain element that connect the outlet of the bottom wall to a drain pipe of the bath fixture. The apparatus may also include at least one removable panel to provide access to water source pipes disposed within the compartment.

What is claimed and desired to be covered by Letters Patent is: 1. An apparatus for preventing water leak damage from a bath fixture having a drain pipe connected to a drain port of the bath fixture and water source pipes connected to hot and cold inlet faucets and to a shower head of the bath fixture, the apparatus comprising: (a) a first side wall having a first side wall top edge, a first side wall bottom edge, and opposing first side wall end edges wherein the first side wall is positioned between the bath fixture and the plumbing connections connecting the water source to hot and cold inlet faucets and to the shower head of the bath fixture; (b) a second side wall having a second side wall top edge, a second side wall bottom edge, and opposing second side wall end edges wherein the second side wall is positioned such that the plumbing connections connecting the water source to the hot and cold inlet faucets and to the shower head of the bath fixture are spaced between the first and second side walls; (c) a first end wall extending from one of the opposing first side wall end edges to one of the opposing second side wall end edges, the first end wall having: (1) a first end wall top edge connecting the first side wall top edge to the second side wall top edge, and (2) a first end wall bottom edge connecting the first side wall bottom edge to the second side wall bottom edge; (d) a second end wall extending from the other one of the opposing first side wall end edges to the other one of the opposing second side wall end edges, the second end wall having: (1) a second end wall top edge connecting the first side wall top edge to the second side wall top edge, and (2) a second end wall bottom edge connecting the first side wall bottom edge to the second side wall bottom edge, wherein the first and second end walls are positioned such that the plumbing connections connecting the water source to the hot and cold inlet faucets and to the shower head of the bath fixture are spaced between the first and second end walls; (e) a top wall extending from the first side wall top edge to the second side wall top edge and from the first end wall top edge to the second end wall top edge; (f) a bottom wall extending from the first side wall bottom edge to the second side wall bottom edge and from the first end wall bottom edge to the second end wall bottom edge wherein the bottom wall slopes downwardly from each of the first and second side wall bottom edges and the first and second end wall bottom edges to an outlet wherein the first and second side walls, the first and second end walls, the top wall, and the bottom wall define a compartment therebetween and wherein the water source pipes of the bath fixture extend upwardly through the bottom wall; (g) a waterproof covering provided on the first and second side walls, the first and second end walls, the top wall, and the bottom wall including the junctures therebetween and the junctures between the water source pipes of the bath fixture and the bottom wall; and (h) a drain element connecting the outlet of the bottom wall to the drain pipe of the bath fixture. 2. The apparatus as described in claim 1, further comprising at least one removable panel in at least one of the first and second side walls, the removable panel being structured to provide access to portions of the water source pipes of the bath fixture disposed within the compartment.
