        "text": "The best trim materials for bathrooms are moisture-resistant options such as cellular PVC, polyurethane, or primed finger-jointed pine sealed with high-grade enamel paint. Standard MDF is generally unsuitable for bathrooms because it swells rapidly when exposed to humidity and steam. While PVC will never rot or absorb moisture, it expands and contracts with room temperature shifts and requires specialized adhesives or solvent welding at joints. Sealed wood trims offer classic detail and crisp cuts but require ongoing paint maintenance to keep water out. Evaluating the ventilation in your bathroom and proximity to showers helps determine whether cellular PVC or sealed natural wood is the better long-term choice.",
