Shower Valve Identification

Hello, I need help in identifying this valve. No idea what brand it is. I tried using the pfister universal kit but it didn't like it. Below is the picture:

welcome to the forums.

I would need to see the cartridge out to tell what it is..

But IMO you have enough room to replace that with a moen moentrol and goof plate.. That divertor has no pressure balance spool and is not up to code...

But it looks like an old avante divertor...

Thank you for the quick response. Any idea how much that would cost to get it replaced?

Call some plumbers in the area and get a some estimates...

Since the hole is open already, and no tile needs to be cut, it should be minimal. Cost of valve a two hours labor.

In NJ I would say $600 more or less..

Priced vary by location...

I recommend this moentrol. You can buy yourself and ask the plumber to install. Or ask if he can get it. Usually if plumber supplied they will warranty it..
