Part of a first-floor flat in Estridge Close was damaged by fire. A man left the property before the Brigade arrived and was assessed on scene by London Ambulance Service crews.
The fire is believed to have been accidental and caused by an incense stick.
A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: “Incense sticks, candles and oil burners are one of the most common causes of fire within homes. It’s really important that you never leave these items unattended.
“Make sure you place incense sticks in a suitable, fire-resistant holder and keep them away from curtains and anything else that can easily catch fire. Remember to put them out entirely when you leave the room and especially before bed.
“We also recommend taking some time to carry out a few simple checks to keep yourself and your loved ones safe. The Brigade’s online Home Fire Safety Checker can guide you around your home and provide you with specific advice to reduce fire risks.”
The Brigade’s Control Officers took the first call to the fire at 6.24am and sent crews from Heston and Feltham fire stations to the scene. The fire was under control by 7.32am.
