Since there was no formal agreement regarding payment, it is likely that the parties had an implied contract. An implied contract is created when the parties' conduct indicates that they intended to enter into a contract, even if no formal agreement was made. Cool Electric provided services, and Build-Rite accepted them without objection, indicating an implied agreement to pay for those services. The lack of a formal agreement or discussion about payment does not necessarily invalidate an implied contract.
