best type of loan product for me?

Options
Hi,

New to the forum and could do with some advice, Im currently morgage free, house worth around 280k.
Bit about me Im 47 and earn approx 42k a year with no debt.

We've decided to stay where we are having lived here 20yrs now and do a bit of internal remodelling and embark on having a rear extension under permitted development.  

Now finance wise im looking at around 85-90k all in for the building work and new kitchen costs.
The dilemma I have is I have the money to do this but I think I'd prefer to finace half of the work and borrow the other half and pay it back monthly over 7/8yrs providing its not to costly as up until recently I was used to paying a morgage anyway.
 The only loan I've ever had is a morgage. I guess my question is what type of product should I be looking at, a personal loan, a home improvement loan or a remorgage [if that option is even open to me being morgage free}
 
Cheers
