caveat: I am only considering refinancing my "second" which is about 10% of my total home loan. The interest only varies by less then half a percent from the refi versus the line of credit.

I would have to know a little more about what you are looking to do with your future finances (inclusive of this property) and how exactly you have your home financed now in order to give you a precise assessment of what the appropriate move would be, but generally speaking:
An equity line is nice and it’s convenient, but in the same respect it can become a burden, just like a high balance credit card. If you have a plan already in place to be able to pay that HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) off in a short schedule of payments, than go for the HELOC.
If you do not, then your best choice is to do a straight Refinance. You will get the money at a lower cost (no matter how insignificant a difference in rate) and you will kill two birds with one stone.
You see, most everybody that gets a HELOC ends up refinancing again with-in the following year or two, in an attempt to consolidate their debt. In almost every case, you end up saving a lot of money in a debt consolidation like that, but you LOSE money by having to refinance a second time to close the HELOC. I always say, "do it right, do it once."

My mom wishes our house to look like an Irish cottage. We saw some people getting stonework done by an Irish company but unfortunately we forgot to write the name down. How would I go about finding people to do a complete renovation on our house so that it looks like an Irish cottage? Thanks

Depends on where you live. Most contractors are skilled to build houses typical of the general area. However, with proper research and input from you, any contractor should be able to achieve what ever look you want.

And Yes, I am a contractor, and I can do what ever the client wants(as long as it is legal, safe and code worthy).
