We have a leaking shower. We have replaced the seat and stem on the water but it still leaks. Also the diverter does not shut off all the water.

Did you try replacing the o-rings, if not the whole cartridge?– CaGaOct 19, 2014 at 15:27

A bit more detail (brand and model, etc.) might help for a repair. Pictures might help (including of the valve parts when they are out.) Replacement is always an option, if a bit messy in most cases.– EcnerwalOct 20, 2014 at 17:25

To oversimplify things, a shower control has two parts: the fixed part attached to the pipes in the wall, and everything else (which is usually the cartridge and possibly some O-rings if they are separate).
If you've replaced "everything else", then the problem is the fixed part in the wall.
