I hope I am not too late. Hard to tell from your video, but it looks like the wood you are casing out the windows and doors are NOT pressure treated. Anywhere that wood touches concrete or masonry products is supposed to be treated lumber. Not sure if any inspectors way out there, but standard lumber will fail prematurely when in contact with concrete. So, your doors or windows could become loose in the wall.

They absolutely are pressure treated and there are most definitely inspectors haha

@@JustUsSix Wonderful, I was quite concerned that it was not. We all want our houses to be the best we can do. My father and I alone built my 3500 sq. ft. home in 1986. We did everything except the poured walls for the basement. Unfortunately I lost him 6 years ago, but how wonderful that we got to do this together. Best wishes as you move forward.

What an incredible memory ❤️ I am so sorry for your loss.
