NOTE: In general, it is a good idea to put a moisture barrier on the concrete floor before installing the hardwood floor.

37:55-38:48 use the backer rod to fill the expansion gap between hardwood boards and walls.
38:49-43:04 cut backer rod if needed to make it flat with the hardwood floor. Use caulk to seal the gap between wall and backer rod as well as the gap between backer rod and hardwood board.
