Modular sink-surrounding counter top cover

A cover apparatus for covering a surrounding surface adjacent a sink, comprising:

• a body, said body being formed of flexible material having a first surface and a second surface opposite said first surface;
• said body configured with an aperture communicating between said first surface and said second surface in a central portion thereof, said aperture having a shape defined by an aperture edge;
• said shape of said aperture being complimentary to a shape of said sink defined by a perimeter edge of a sink supported by a surrounding surface, whereby said body completely surrounds said sink when said aperture is placed in an as-used position, with said aperture edge adjacent all of said perimeter edge and said first surface in contact with said surrounding surface extending away from all of said perimeter edge;
• said aperture edge surrounding an open area, said open area defining a passage adapted for direct contact with bottom and side surfaces of said sink therethrough, and adapted for passing of liquid therethrough;
• said body in said as-used position, shielding a user from contact with said surrounding surface surrounding and concurrently shielding said surrounding surface from said liquid which may be communicating to said sink through said open area;
• said body formed of multiple engageable components;
• said components including a first side portion and a second side portion which are positioned on opposing sides of said sink in said as-used position;
• a portion of said aperture formed into each of said first side portion and said second side portion;
• a first central section removably engageable between edges of said first side portion and said second side portion, said first central section having another portion of said aperture formed therein;
• a second central section removably engageable between said edges of said first side portion and said second side portion in position opposite said first central section;
• said second central section having at least one opening positioned therein in a communication between said first surface and said second surface;
• said opening in a registered position upon said body to provide a passage for a faucet through said body in said as-used position, said opening formed within said second central section;
• whereby said multiple engageable components are engageable with each other through removable means of engagement, and said body may be assembled therefrom and placed in said as-used position;
• said multiple engageable components including a plurality of said second central sections;
• and
• each of said plurality of second central sections having a different configuration of said opening to match a differently configured faucet and allow passage therethrough when said body is placed in said as-used position.
