A Local Contractor Built on a Simple Idea: Do It Right.
Honest Exteriors is a locally rooted exterior contractor based in Eden Prairie, MN. We serve homeowners and businesses across the Twin Cities metro and southern Minnesota — handling roofing, siding, windows, and gutters with the same standard of care on every project, regardless of size.
We're not a franchise. We're not a storm chaser. We're a community-based company that got into this business because we believe homeowners deserve a contractor they can actually trust — one that tells them the truth, advocates for their interests, and treats their property like it matters.
That belief isn't marketing language. It's the reason Honest Exteriors exists.
Built by Someone Who'd Seen the Industry from the Inside
Founder Chris Stinton grew up in Fargo, North Dakota — an only child who learned early that if you wanted something, you worked for it. He entered the home improvement industry at 17, knocking doors and learning the business from the ground up.
Over the next decade and a half, he built a track record of top sales across multiple companies, earned a Business Management degree from Metropolitan State University, and became deeply familiar with how the exterior contracting industry actually operates — the good and the bad.
Honest Exteriors was founded in 2021 with one guiding principle: explain things other contractors won't, recommend only what's genuinely needed, and treat every client's home like it's your own.

We Live Here Too
We're not a national franchise that shows up after a storm and leaves. We're a local business rooted in the same communities we serve. That means we show up for our neighbors — not just on job sites, but in the broader life of this area.
