The incident took place at 6.39pm on Monday, May 15, at a home in Elm Park Road.
Crews from Caversham Road, Wokingham Road and Whitley Wood fire stations, along with an officer were sent after the service received reports of smoke coming from a first floor window.
There was a fire on this floor, and it was put out by four firefighters wearing breathing apparatus, and using two hose reels.
They were on the scene for two hours and 20 minutes.
