Summary
When you deconstruct a part of a house, then often in the beginning the progress circle is not shown. It might get later randomly shown. You can also force the circle to appear by pointing to a different location besides the part which you want to deconstruct. Or you can open the inventory to make the circle appear. Or the thing which you are deconstructing gets a hole through which you are pointing.

Steps
Build a house with some walls and floors. Deconstruct something with an ax. Before doing this, make sure you are pointing exactly at the part and not through a hole or something similar. Don’t move the mouse while you start deconstructing.
Extras
The following screenshot was taken after about 7 seconds of continuously deconstructing a brick floor with an ax. As you can see, deconstructing is still in progress and there is no progress circle.
