Chap’s local refurbished in 2000 (7)
I believe the answer is:
malcolm
'chap's' is the definition.
'local refurbished in 2000' is the wordplay.
'refurbished' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'2000' becomes 'mm' (2000 in Roman numerals).
'local' anagrammed gives 'alcol'.
'alcol' inserted inside 'mm' is 'MALCOLM'.
(Other definitions for malcolm that I've seen before include "Scottish king" , "King at end of Macbeth" , "- Bradbury, Eng. writer" , "- X, American civil rights leader" , "King who killed Macbeth" .)
