Stockpile Volumetrics for High Point & Guilford County
Holmes and Watson provides Stockpile Volumetrics across High Point and Guilford County — typically a 30 minutes mobilization from our Winston-Salem headquarters into the Piedmont Triad. We routinely fly across Downtown High Point, Uptown, and Emerywood, and we coordinate FAA airspace authorizations and property-management access for every job.
High Point's commercial inventory is dominated by furniture manufacturing facilities, market showrooms, and I-85-corridor distribution. Many showroom buildings are large-footprint flat-roof structures with the roof age and envelope condition you'd expect from purpose-built market space — exactly where radiometric thermography catches problems early. Within that mix, Stockpile Volumetrics addresses drone-based volumetrics are typically within 1-3% of traditional survey methods, completed in a fraction of the time, with no rover crews walking unstable piles.

Why High Point Properties Use Drone Stockpile Volumetrics
High Point's market and showroom stock includes some of the largest single-tenant commercial roofs in the Triad. Walking those roofs with handheld thermography is impractical; aerial drone scans produce a defensible orthomosaic in a single evening.
