I know a plumber that HATES Moen as they are hard / costly to fix. That hard teak wood may be a good trim to use as it's not painted and will stand up to abuse. And unlike bamboo or PVC it does not crate as much of a home for say roaches in the cavities in things like bamboo. If you do use Bamboo boric acid dusted on the inside of the bamboo will help kill roaches and other bugs that may come by in the future. Doors that you can open from the outside as in with a key are good in case some nut job locks themselves in the bathroom and won't come out. This happened to us, and we sold no booze.
