Alira's units range from 695 to 1,048 sq ft. Here are indicative budgets for each size, and what can move them.
Short version: at the indicative RM6 to RM12 per sqft installed, SPC for the main living and bedroom areas of an Alira unit costs roughly RM2,500 to RM6,200 for the smallest 695 sq ft layout, and RM3,800 to RM9,500 for the largest 1,048 sq ft layouts. Overlaying sound tiles and comparing itemised quotations keep the figure nearer the low end.
Alira @ Tropicana Metropark (listed as Alira @ Metropark Subang) is a freehold serviced residence by Avaland Bhd, formerly MCT Berhad, on Jalan MP 1 in the 88-acre Tropicana Metropark township, Subang Jaya. It has two towers with 832 units, from 695 to 1,048 sq ft, and topped out on 29 July 2024 with 95% take-up. Listings describe it as completed in 2025, though they differ on the month. At launch the developer said every unit comes with kitchen cabinets (with hood and hob), air-conditioners and two car park bays. The sources checked do not say what the floors are, so none of the advice below assumes a floor finish.
Budget from the floor area to be covered, not the built-up size. Built-up includes walls, bathrooms, the kitchen, and the balcony and yard, which usually keep their original finish. As a rough guide, the living area, corridor and bedrooms might be about 60 to 75 percent of the built-up size, but your installer should measure the real figure.
| Unit built-up | Typical layout | Area to cover (approx.) | Indicative installed SPC cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 695 sq ft | 1+1 bedroom | 420 to 520 sq ft | RM2,520 to RM6,240 |
| 792 sq ft | 2 bedrooms | 480 to 590 sq ft | RM2,880 to RM7,080 |
| About 990 sq ft | 2+1 or 3 bedrooms | 600 to 750 sq ft | RM3,600 to RM9,000 |
| 1,048 sq ft | 3 bedrooms or villa type | 630 to 790 sq ft | RM3,780 to RM9,480 |

At an indicative RM6 to RM12 per sqft installed, covering roughly 480 to 590 sq ft of a 792 sq ft unit costs about RM2,880 to RM7,080. The real figure depends on the grade, the measured area, the base and any extras, so get an itemised quotation.
Usually yes, because it avoids hacking, disposal and levelling, but only if the tiles are firmly bonded and reasonably flat. Tap-test the tiles and check the levels first.
Items often listed separately include levelling, tile removal and disposal, skirting, thresholds, and delivery or lift charges for high-rise buildings. Ask for each as a separate line.
Laminate costs less (RM4 to RM8 per sqft in our price guide) but is less water-resistant, so it suits dry bedrooms. SPC costs more (RM6 to RM12) and handles spills and humidity better, so it suits living areas. A mix is common.
