The superconducting order parameter and LDOS spectra near an impenetrable surface are studied on the basis of selfconsistent calculations for a two band superconductor with nodeless extended s-+wave order parameter symmetry, as possibly realized in Fe-based high-temperature superconductors. It is found that for a wide range of parameters the spatial behavior of the order parameter at a surface is not reduced to a trivial suppression. If the interband scattering at a surface is of the order of the intraband one or dominates it, it can be energetically favorable to change the symmetry of the superconducting state near the surface from $s_{\pm}$ to conventional s-wave. The range of existing this surface conventional superconductivity is very sensitive to the relative values of interband and intraband pairing potentials. It is shown that the LDOS spectra near the surface can qualitatively differ upon calculating with and without taking into account the selfconsistency of the order parameter.
