This home had an existing 12 x 32 patio slab. We cut into the existing hip roof and added a new roof structure to encompass the existing chimney. A brick knee wall and columns were then constructed. Vinyl fascia, soffit, a ceiling and gutters were added. Ceiling fans and screening were installed. These homeowners are enjoying beautiful autumn days on their new porch.

This is kind of what we are looking for. How was the screen installed on the walls and columns.

Love it! I am considering doing the exact same hip roof tie-in. However, I'd like to find out more about how the tie-in is done (from an engineering perspective), if it can be done DIY (I'm pretty experienced with friends that are builders), and approximate cost (if hiring a contractor).
If the author of this article could possible post what he paid to have this done, not including brick work, I would be hugely appreciative.
