A total of 16 firefighters – including a number working on call – worked to put out the blaze, which started at around 4.40 pm on Tuesday.
The Jersey Fire and Rescue Service said it was quickly discovered that the fire had started in a communal storage area on the fourth floor.
The cause of the blaze is now being investigated by the fire service working with the States police, they added.
Station commander Mark Walker said: ‘Fires in high rise buildings can be complex in nature due to firefighting teams having to establish adequate water supplies and firefighting equipment on floors that are elevated well above a normal domestic dwelling height, whilst liaising with concerned residents.
‘Fires such as these require a considerable amount of resources to be utilised in order for crews to extinguish any fire promptly that breaks out on elevated floors. At this incident, three appliances consisting of 16 firefighters were present to ensure that the fire was extinguished quickly and subsequent floors either side of the fire floor investigated for fire spread.’
