Guildford homeowner puts out small fire

A Guildford homeowner mostly put out a small fire alone, despite the speedy arrival of three fire engines on Wednesday night (October 27).

Two red watch crews and a retained crew from Guildford attended a semi-detached home in Maple Close, opposite the Rowbarge pub, at about 9.55pm.

It was a small fire mostly affecting the plastic roof of a lean-to at the rear of the property, according to red watch spokesman Leroy Cubitt.

He added:

“The chap who owns the house put most of it out with a garden hose before we arrived.”It’s burnt the plastic roof. I don’t think it’s damaged the main house.”One hose reel was used to put out the flames but no breathing apparatus was needed.
