Universal remote programmed to control all your devices - TV, soundbar, streaming box, the lot. I'll test everything works and write down what does what.
### Stop Juggling Five Different Remotes
You know the drill: **one remote for the TV, another for the soundbar, a third for the satellite box**. They all live down the side of the sofa and you can never find the right one when you need it.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** A properly programmed universal remote isn't just convenient - it massively reduces clutter and arguments over missing remotes.

### Why Bother Getting Someone In?
| ✅ Done Right | ❌ DIY Disaster | |--------------|-----------------| | All devices responding first time | Half the buttons don't work | | Volume controls the soundbar not the TV | Remote keeps switching inputs randomly | | Written guide of what's programmed | No idea what codes were used | | Tested before I leave | "It worked yesterday..." |
Programming universal remotes is fiddly. **Different devices need different code sets**, some need manual input, others auto-detect. Get one wrong and nothing works properly.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Multiple rooms?** If you've got TVs in different rooms needing the same treatment, I can do them all in one visit. **Smart home integration?** Some universal remotes (like Logitech Harmony Hub) can control smart lights and thermostats too. Let me know if that's something you want. **Old house with ancient equipment?** No problem. The older stuff is often easier to program - simpler codes, fewer options. Your 20-year-old DVD player will probably work first time.
Frequently Asked Questions about Universal remote programming in Honiton
What exactly can you program into a universal remote?
Most universals can control your TV, cable/satellite box, DVD player, soundbar, and even some smart lights or fans. I'll test each device to make sure it responds properly before I leave.
Do I need to buy the remote first?
Yes - have a look on Amazon for a decent one (Logitech Harmony or One For All are solid choices). Bring it out of the box but don't bin the instructions - I might need the code list.
Will it work with my really old telly?
Usually yes. Universal remotes have massive code libraries covering decades of devices. If something's genuinely too obscure, I'll let you know straight away rather than waste your time.
How long does it take?
30-45 minutes for a typical setup - TV, soundbar, streaming box. More devices means more testing time, but it's still usually done within the hour.
What if I press the wrong button later and mess it up?
I'll write down which buttons do what and the device codes I've used. Keep that somewhere safe - if you accidentally reset it, you can reprogram it yourself or give me a call.
