Fire crews have extinguished a fire which gutted the back bedrooms of a house on Ford Rd.
A Fire and Emergency spokeswoman said they received multiple calls about the fire, the first coming in at 9.04am, and it was well involved when firefighters arrived.
Two fire appliances were sent to the scene and their crews extinguished the fire.
One appliance remains on the scene and the crew is keeping an eye on hot spots, she said.
Meanwhile, investigations are under way after a garage fire in Glenholme.
A Fire and Emergency spokeswoman said they responded to a 111 call about a fire on Clinkard Ave, between James and Miller Sts, about 9.45pm yesterday.
"A standalone garage, about six metres by eight metres, was involved in fire when the fire crew arrived."
The fire was put out and a fire investigator requested, she said.
A police media spokeswoman said police helped with traffic control last night and were back at the scene this morning investigating the cause of the fire.
