Building insurance - roof with asbestos cement sheets

Posts: 234 Forumite
I am trying to obtain a building insurance quote to purchase a property (built 1965) where the roof has asbestos cement sheeting.
Majority of all insurance companies ask if the roof is made of slate, tile or concrete. When I select 'No' and complete the rest of the form, the company is unable to provide a quote.
Are you aware of any insurance companies where they accept this type of roofing, if so please can you provide me the link so I can get a quote?
