Just make sure that both sides of the facia are given a good coat of

This is easy enough to do just remember that your external skin of
brickwork will need to be built up higher than normal in order to be
covered by the facia.
There is also the question of vents, you can either use facia top vents
or simply use a breathable underfelt.
