I changed out the hot valve the cold valve as well as the diverter valve, yet still a leak. I bought a kit so all washers and seats too. Any ideas?

What brand of faucet? Was repair kit for your specific faucet?
Don't recall ever seeing a kit that included seats.

Two handle or single handle faucet?

Leak at hot, cold or both. When reinstalling the stems were they in the open or closed position? If you don't remember, I suggest that you remove the stems, insure that they are in the open position, then reinstall.
