Glendora, CA asked in Contracts for California

Q: Whether do we need to pay $400 to a person who fixed our AC without our assent to fix?

We asked a guy coming by to give us a quote for fixing our AC. Without our consent, he fixed and asked for $400. We, under shock, wrote him a check of 400 and canceled the check a few hours later. We wrote him a text, saying we only asked for a quote, not ask for repairing, and therefore not going to pay $400.
