Decades of service in Lakewood neighborhoods
Westgate developed as one of southwest Lakewood's residential neighborhoods, with home construction starting in the late 1960s and continuing through the 1970s and beyond. The area benefited from a premier foothills‑adjacent location with views, access to wetlands greenbelts, and proximity to golf courses and recreation, drawing homeowners who value both outdoor access and a small‑town neighborhood feel. Bear Lake Plumbing has served these residents and their neighbors since 1995, keeping Westgate homes safe, comfortable, and up to code.
