A recessed point drain assembly is described. Embodiments of the recessed point drain assembly can include, but are not limited to, a base plate having a recess, a drain body adapted to be coupled to the base plate by a first plurality of fasteners, and a clamping collar adapted to be coupled to the drain by a second plurality of fasteners. A gasket can be sandwiched between the drain body and the clamping collar. Typically, a top of the recessed point drain assembly can be configured to be substantially flush with a top of a subfloor.
