Hide during refurbishment (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fur

'hide' is the definition.
(animal fur)

'during refurbishment' is the wordplay.
'during' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'FUR' is hidden within 'refurbishment'.

(Other definitions for fur that I've seen before include "Hard water pipe coating" , "Garment" , "Hair covering animal's body" , "Hide" , "Coating formed on tongue of sick person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
