Sketchup is not a great modeling tool for 3d printing. It was not made with 3d printing in mind.
If you see a mix of white and blue walls in sketchup, that probably means you have one or more walls with 0 width, ie walls that only have a front face, but no back face. 3d printers cannot handle objects with walls that have no thickness.
I already had that problem of no wall thickness, but I changed the walls first to 1mm and later as try to 2mm. That prints went good on the extra roof after.

Hey,
For school I'm busy designing shelters for bus stops. Only I already have problems by the basic design.
Cura designs an extra roof inside the shelter and I haven't designed this in Sketchup. How can I remove this roof?
You can see in the pictures there is no roof above the door frame in Sketchup, but there is one in Cura. It's also only visible in Cura when you activate the layer view mode
