Mike Purnell is the most dishonest, disgusting man I have ever met. Not only did he tell us the tint would provide privacy at night and mislead us for a sale while we both (my husband and myself ) were present. He lied and stated that isn't what he said, did a terrible job and didn't stand behind his work. When we revealed proof of the job being done horrendously he accused us of lying. Mike forged my signature at his office when he told he I signed a paper (I knew I didn't so I asked for the proof of signature) I knew when I asked for it, it was going to be forged. Mike sent me the "customer" copy signed with the same pen right next to on it countertop and tried to gas light me into saying he left it here when he clearly had it with him. Mike not only did a terrible job and we supplied photos to him, we have 16 windows and Mike told us we had 19. On the signed paper mike sent to us not only did he forged my signature he also had a price of $943 but our card was charged for more!!!!!!! Fraud and theft!??? Mike did awful cuts, his tint was left over car tint!!!! Not the tint that was to be used, Mike didn't supply any samples, leave us with any paperwork nothing. I asked Mike to come and remove the tint and supply a refund and even offered to pay him for his time and supplies Mike decided to tell him his material cost was $223 and the rest of what he charged was labor. Not only that but mike knew the job because he came for a consult knowing a window was about 9-10 feet tall, instead of bringing a ladder mike used a chair and our dryer, denting our dryer completely on the top!!! When asked about it mike once again tried to gas light me into saying he didn't. I have a dog camera in this room clearly showing mike did it. Mike stated I cussed him out on the phone, when I spoke to Mike little did he know he was in speaker with two witnesses as well (I did this knowing this man was a liar) so there was proof I was nothing but professional. Mike also continued to try to pin me and my significant other against each other saying we both said things we didn't until finally as you see below the games quit when I stated I want everything via group text for proof and paper trail. Mike left my house a disaster with the spray he used for the windows causing our windows become filthy when he told me he would clean the windows VERY well before. Mike left all his scrap tint all over my floors and this man claims he has been doing this for 40 years (see example of the cut below which is how every window is) but he cut his finger and bled all over my door and window and LEFT IT. This man left blood everywhere and didn't bother to tell me or wipe it up! Not only did Mike commit forgery and theft, he was a straight jerk! I didn't know people like this existed honestly... i ensured to take a video and keep the screen shots but ended up removing the god awful home tint job on my own. I will be taking mike to small claims court for fraud and theft as well as the shitty job he did but I wanted to ensure I was warning others. Stay away at all cost!!! read more

See all

Absolutely horrible experience. Not only was my tint job done poorly, it still has defects and Mike told me there is "No such thing as a perfect tint job." He also left the inside of my car a complete mess when it was done and my husband picked it up. He obviously does not care about his workmanship or his customers. He had it back TWICE and I specifically requested it be redone and it was not and still continues to have the same problems. He told me it wasn't that he didn't want to redo it but there was nothing to be redone. And this was after I had gone through and specifically marked every window with an issue, and it was ALL the windows. Not only that, when I called to speak to him about it he was very rude and disrespectful. His yelp reviews speak very much to my same experience read more

Stop lying and back your work!!! I hired Mike Cornell with Solar Control early October, 2018 to apply a window tint film that I had obtained as it is considered the best on the market to repel birds. He said he wouldn't have a problem with it. When he completed all four large windows at $425.00 I commented that there were numerous creases in the film on all windows and was told that in a few weeks they would stretch out and if not, he would come back out and fix them. I advised him on November 28th that they had not; he replied that it was now too cold and he would call me to schedule a follow up as soon as it was warm. I texted him in April to ask when he would be out-no reply. Asked again and got "????". Sent him his promise to come back out-no reply. Asked again-got "Did what?". Sent everything again- got "???? Don't know who this is and I am closed... good day". Asked him to go back up the text chain to review and nothing. I wish I had checked him out prior to as I have now found similar comments. This is a pattern with Mike at Solar Control so I would HIGHLY advise NOT using him for any work. I have documentation and pictures. read more

DO NOT LET THESE GUYS TOUCH YOUR CAR!!! They turned a simple window tint job into a complete nightmare for me. After wasting 2 days of my time, and about 8 trips back and forth to their business, I still have a horrible tint job! They have re-tinted my car 3 times now, and I still have scratched window film, air bubbles, mis-cut edges, and glue residue on my windows. They have zero attention to detail and don't even take the time to look at their work before handing the keys over to the owner. Also, they couldn't even call me when my car was done; then made me wait another 30 minutes to pick it up after I contacted them, and they had my car for over 6 hours that day! I'm at my wits end with these guys! On their last attempt to fix their previous mistakes, they damaged my rubber window trim on 2 widows where they cut into it with a razor blade. To top it all off, I also found a nice scratch on the outside of my window. Somehow these idiots managed to actually scratch the outside glass surface. I'm now seeking legal action to go after these hacks. read more

My husband hired Solar Control to tint the windows in his office. The installer did a nice job and was professional. When I asked him about tinting my car windows, he set up a time for the following Thursday morning. I dropped my car off late Wednesday night, but, not caring for the poor security of their key drop box, I took the key over Thursday morning. No one was there from Solar Control, so I left my key, name and number with the detailing company that shares the same space. No one called that day. When I called late afternoon, the "gentleman" who answered the phone told me they were out on another job that day, and that he had expected me to drop the car off by 4 the day before. No apology for double booking themselves. No phone call asking if I was able to alter my original appointment time to fit better their schedule. He didn't even ask to reschedule. His tone of voice and attitude clearly stated that he couldn't care less to keep my business. I cannot believe they let someone with such poor customer service skills answer their phone. read more
