That's right, the only thing you will need to replace is the cartridge.
The last Diverter Pressure Balance Cartridge that I replaced was made by American Standard and cost @ $15.00.

Some valves have water shutoffs on each side of the incoming water.

This is the Cartridge that I used: http://www.homedepot.com/p/American-...=5yc1vZc69rZ5a
