Firefighters are attending to a fire in the laundry of a Pāpāmoa home this morning.
A Northern Fire Communications spokesman said firefighters were called to a Pāpāmoa address about 5.30am.
The spokesman said the fire was originally reported as a house fire but when firefighters arrived there was a small fire in the laundry.
Mount Maunganui and Tauranga fire brigades were still at the scene.
Meanwhile, firefighters from both brigades were called to a fire in a pizza oven at a Mount Maunganui business overnight.
