Benchmark Leather Renovation was started by me, Mark Slade, ten years ago.

After serving a seven year apprenticeship at Connolly Leather, Wimbledon, I acquired the skills to re-dress and renovate leather upholstery, old and new, to the highest standard.

During this time I had the privilege of working on many top marque motor vehicles, yachts, planes and various venues containing luxury leather seating. These included the QE2 , House of Lords, House of Commons, Guild Hall and many more.

Since branching out on my own I now provide my expertise and services to London and the South West of England.

Along with Leathercare Renovations I am the only surviving Connolly Leather trained renovation specialist.
