Mark Theys, Founder & Owner
At BENCHMARK, we believe we're not just in the construction business, we're in the business of solving problems. Guided by my faith, my family, and a personal commitment to this community, my goal is simple: when you hand us a problem with your home, you can consider it solved, fixed, and built to stand the test of time.

My path in trades didn't start in an office, it started in 7th grade, riding my bike around town with a lawnmower to take on $10 yard jobs. By high school, I was taking every shop, welding, and drafting class available, converting my family's old treehouse into a hands on workshop. I learned early that hard work, continuous learning, and treating people right were the only shortcuts that actually worked.
Over the years, I honed my skills across every corner of the industry. From heavy excavation and underground utilities to hand splitting firewood for the Amish in Platteville, and building custom cabinetry for HGTV-featured master carpenters, I learned the trade from the roots up.

In September 2024, I founded Benchmark Construction to bring that exact standard of
raw work ethic, honesty, and master craftsmanship directly to local homeowners.
