        "text": "Yes, there are several foundation types suitable for garage additions, with the choice depending on soil conditions, local building codes, and budget. A common option is a concrete slab-on-grade, which is cost-effective and suitable for stable ground. For areas with expansive soils or where a living space is planned above, a post-tension slab or a stem wall foundation might be necessary. In some cases, deeper pier-and-beam foundations are used. Your contractor will assess your site to recommend the most appropriate and compliant foundation system.",
