I'd use the heloc.

Rates arent going to move in 5 years. Most offer interest only. But being a money talk poster, you want to pay the sucker off. Having it isolated on the heloc allows you to do that.

Doing a cash out refinance isnt going to get you the best terms in the marketplace. Even if it is a home improvement mortgage.
Best terms go to rate/term refinance. And best terms are typically under 75% loan to value.

If you really want to get a better mortgage, go ahead and do a rate/term refinance on your first. Either subrogate the heloc or close it and open a new one.
After the refinance, use the heloc for the renovation.

That gets you the best of everything.
