Engine 14 was next to arrive and pulled into a driveway with better access to the house. Several lines were pulled from Engine 14 and crews went to work extinguishing the fire.

Crews battled heavy flames for an extended period of time before bringing the fire under control. Crews from Engine 24, Truck 1, Squad 5 and Engine 21 worked together to control the blaze. Engine 74 was requested to respond from Station 1 for an additional tanker. Engine 91 responded while also going to a fill in. A tanker shuttle was ran from the scene to Station 5. Extensive overhaul was conducted by all crews until all the hot spots were extinguished.
