There's more than one type of laser. Diode lasers are pretty much ready to go immediately, but you don't want them to push too much power, as they can then heat up to the point of failure. Other lasers, particularly high powered chemical lasers, rely on a several complicated sub-systems to fire, and will need quite some time to get ready for action.

Why do stone houses take a long time to warm up?

Stone houses take a long time to warm up because stone is a poor conductor of heat, meaning it does not transfer heat quickly. As a result, it takes longer for the stone walls to absorb and retain heat, making it harder for the house to warm up quickly. Additionally, stone houses often have thick walls which further slows down the heating process.
