The London Fire Brigade took to Twitter today to remind people to register their appliances after a fire in Tooting.

The house fire occurred on Blackshaw Road in Tooting after a dishwasher caught alight.

A dishwasher in the kitchen of the terraced house was damaged by fire.

One man left the property before the brigade arrived and there were no reports of injury.

A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: "If your white goods start making a strange noise, don't ignore it.

"If you think there's a problem always unplug it and contact the manufacturer or a qualified repair technician.

"Most fires where white goods are the source of ignition are not down to anything you have done – so always make sure you register your appliances as you'll be informed if any issues are identified with the product you've bought."

The fire occurred Thursday January, 13.

The Brigade was called at 23:09 and the fire was under control by 23:39.

Two fire engines from Tooting Fire Station attended the scene.
