## Description

Balta Gala in Skylight is a soft, light grey [Carpet](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/carpet) that brings calm to any room. The plain weave sits low at 5mm pile height, so it feels gentle underfoot without showing every footprint. At 850g/m² with a felt back, it's built to take daily wear in busy homes and keeps its looks even when life gets messy.

What sets this carpet apart is the bleach-cleanable backing. Spills and stains that might worry you on other carpets are simple to tackle here. A dab of diluted bleach lifts most marks, so your Skylight stays fresh without fading. This makes it perfect for homes where pets, children or muddy boots are part of the deal.

### Where it works

Balta Gala suits bedrooms, dining rooms, hallways, landings and living spaces. The neutral grey tone pairs well with modern and traditional schemes alike. Its gripper fitting makes it a standard choice for stairs and high-traffic areas. Commercial use up to 10 years is rated for this carpet, so it handles busy family life with ease.

### Fitting and care

Gripper rods hold the carpet in place, so installation is straightforward and cost-effective. You'll need underlay beneath it for comfort and to protect the backing. Regular vacuuming keeps it clean between washes. For stains, blot first, then use a mild bleach solution on the [Bleach Cleanable Carpets](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/bleach-cleanable-carpets) to lift marks without damaging pile or dye. A 10-year commercial warranty covers wear and defects under normal household use.
