What wood for a bathroom countertop?

When choosing wood for a bathroom countertop, prioritize species that resist humidity. Beyond teak—one of the most commonly used woods in bathrooms thanks to its natural resistance to water and mildew—other species are perfectly suitable for damp rooms:

  • Bamboo: naturally rot-resistant and eco-friendly
  • Acacia: excellent value for money
  • Hevea (rubberwood): delicate grain reminiscent of oak

Avoid softwoods like pine or spruce, which handle constant humidity poorly. A regular water-repellent treatment is essential for all woods, even the most resistant ones.
