Z & R Solutions is a family-owned business established in 2020 by brothers-in-law Zack Ferrington and Ray Mejias Jr. They both come from careers in the gas industry, Zack started his career off as a laborer on pipeline in 2008 and worked his way up over the years to become a pipeline inspector. Ray attended college in Shreveport, La earning his degree in oil and gas production technology before working his way up to become a pipeline inspector. When covid hit and the gas industry slowed down, Zack & Ray were looking for alternative ways to support their families. One day while speaking to a local funeral homeowner about their troubles with finding someone to engrave final passing dates on monuments, an opportunity was presented, and they seen a need in their community. They began researching and contacting other monument engravers, soaking up all the information they could. They purchased their engraving equipment, and a local funeral homeowner gave them old monuments to practice on. After a few weeks of perfecting their skills Z & R solutions was formed. Today they strive to truly make a difference in their communities by providing timely engraving services, bronze / granite monument restorations, and monument sales.
