Yes. Drain cleaning refers to clearing clogs in the drains of specific fixtures, like sinks or bathtubs. Sewer cleaning addresses blockages or buildup in the main sewer line, which receives water from all of your home's drains.

Don’t pour grease, oils, or large food particles down the drain. You can use a drain screen to catch hair and other debris in sinks and showers. Regular drain cleanings performed by a professional can also help prevent clogs.

If you have a sewer backup, avoid using water and call a professional right away. Sewage backups can cause major damage and pose serious health risks if not dealt with quickly.
