A crew from Bracknell fire station rushed to a house in Francis Chichester Close, Ascot, at 4.09pm after a towel that was hanging on a door caught alight because of the heat from a nearby light fitting.
Watch manager Miles Cooper said: "The house did have fire alarms, but I would like to reiterate the importance of have working smoke alarms and testing them weekly.
"Small fires like this can get out of control very quickly."
