A smash repair business in Guildford has been destroyed by an intense fire earlier today.

More than 10 trucks, including a ladder platform, and 50 firefighters arrived on scene to find the property well alight.

Crews quickly got to work to contain the fire but withdrew after the roof collapsed.

The fire also caused damage to the property behind the smash repair.

There were no reported injuries and investigations are now underway into the cause of the blaze.
