We had a similar thing nearly 25 years ago only it was started by an electric fault! Fortunately it happened in the day and my mum smelled the smoke coming down stairs. The entire upstairs was a right off due to smoke damage, it even ate into the porcelain in the bathroom, new windows, ceilings, pretty much everything. I was lucky that I was living away at college and had a lot of my personal affects with me but I did lose a vast Lego collection . However my mum dad and brother lost everything from upstairs but had it happened at night it could have been far far worse!!!No, it was all smoke damage, until numpty from over the road put front door in, then a few flames, but controlled. Apart from my tractor collection on shelf.
Unbelievable, but smoke even got into light bulbs,
Next day with help. Just painted whole house.
Put it down to experience,
