Garage facade, instead of rough plaster Styrodur?

Hello professionals.

Can I do it like this? Or what speaks against it?...

I built a garage last year. Interior finished. This year I want to do the facade on the outside. I do not need to insulate it.

I intend to realize the facade as follows (I’ve heard):
Attach 2cm Styrodur boards directly onto the masonry with dowels. There are special insulation dowels for this!

In the end, the entire exterior area will be covered with such Styrodur boards. When I have them on, I will plaster them with a fiberglass mesh. On top of that will come the final fine plaster or Capatect roughcast.

My specific concerns are now the dowelled boards on the bricks. Is that a good idea?
Or should one refrain from the boards here and rather apply a roughcast instead?

Please provide lots of experience reports / hints.

Best regards, Jürg

Hello,

I would skip the insulation for the garage. What would be the point of that?

Just exterior plaster on it, and done.

Regards

Exactly for that reason: I don't need to plaster. No rough plaster. No fine plaster. Only the panels (precisely the thinnest there are, 2cm, because no insulation is needed), these will then be, as I already said, filled with a glass silk fabric, and then the premium plaster applied on top. This is cost-effective and practical. Since no rough plaster and no fine plaster are necessary... above all, I can do it myself and save a lot of labor time that I would otherwise have to pay for. The textured plaster will then be applied by a mason anyway.
