Here's a post that shares some of the pitfalls and progress she's made trying to DIY an awning. Hopefully it'll help you avoid some problems. It's worth it to read her other posts, too!
The nicest ones I've seen are stand alone post and beam construction with either metal or polycarb roof panels secure on top and overhanging the roof line
The cheapest way I know is to use a Valance Bed Sheet and Batten it to the house wall. Fixing the outer corners to an upright timber sunk into the ground.
My back concrete steps are coming away from the house and i have no railing. I need dteps a raling and small porch, out of heavy duty pallets, if possible 😁
