Surfers Paradise Nail Salon Gutted By Flames

A Surfers Paradise nail salon has gone up in flames overnight.

Three fire crews raced to the Orchid Avenue business shortly before 2am on Monday, after reports of a commercial property on fire.

They arrived to find smoke pouring from the ground floor of a building, and managed to extinguish the flames quickly, but said half the store had already been damaged.

Paramedics were also on scene as a precaution. 

Fire investigators were due to head back to the scene later on Monday to investigate the cause.
