What is laser cleaning and how does it work?

Laser cleaning is a non contact, eco friendly method that uses focused laser energy to remove contaminants such as rust, paint, soot, and grime from the surface of a material. The laser targets the unwanted layer so it breaks apart and is extracted, while the underlying metal, stone, wood, or tile remains intact.

How long does a typical laser cleaning job take?

Project time depends on the size of the area, the material, and how heavy the buildup is. Smaller spot treatments can take less than an hour, while larger restoration or smoke damage projects may require several hours or multiple visits.

How much does laser cleaning cost?

Green Bee Laser prices projects per job based on the surface type, total area, access, and level of contamination. We offer competitive, transparent pricing and provide a clear estimate after a free in person or virtual assessment in the Los Angeles and South Bay area.

Do I need to prep the area before my laser cleaning service?

We ask that you remove personal items and fragile objects near the work zone. Our technician handles site prep, protects nearby surfaces where needed, and cleans up the work area once the job is finished.

What types of surfaces can be cleaned with laser technology?

Laser cleaning works on stone and masonry, tile and grout, wood beams and trim, metal fixtures and machinery, paint and graffiti on multiple substrates, soot and fire damage, and select industrial components. It is especially useful when power washing or sandblasting would be too aggressive.

Will laser cleaning damage the surface being cleaned?

Laser cleaning is highly precise and non abrasive when correctly configured. We tune power and speed to remove only the unwanted layer, such as rust, soot, or old paint, without harming the base material.
