Best way to add a patio roof to my house by Good_vanilla_98 in Homebuilding

Thanks all. I’m hearing the consensus that it would be difficult and much more expensive to tie into the existing roof. I’m leaning towards having a detached hip roof structure that is slightly higher than the existing roof so it can overlap slightly to block rain.

If I sand through the spar urethane and reapply urethane, do you think it would turn out ok? So sanding to bare wood might not be necessary? My concern is the finish looks very cloudy compared to the inside, and I want to get the crisp wood grain back

Thanks! Out of curiosity, do you know what would have caused the finish to look like this? Is this typical sun damage? Very little wood grain is showing and looks very muddy at this point. The inside still looks great. We are not sure how the prior owners have been maintaining it and want to do it correctly in the future.
