Facebook is launching a new home services feature in its Marketplace section for US users. Marketplace is a separate commerce section on Facebook that allows users to connect with one another to buy, sell, and give away items. Recently, it’s even added a functionality to search for a home rental or buy a car. With the new home services category, users can now hire professionals for jobs like plumbing, cleaning, and home renovations, which makes it even more like Craigslist. Facebook has partnered with Handy, HomeAdvisor, and Porch for the new feature, and thousands of professionals are listed for services at launch.

“More people ask for recommendations related to home services on Facebook in the US than any other topic,” said Deb Liu, vice president of Marketplace in a statement.
