No contract/no deposit, that's the only way I would do it.
I once hired a fence guy this way. He didn't want to give me a contract so I said I will pay you every day when you show up.
He did a great job, I paid him 1/3 every day for three days. Of coarse this was back when contractors weren't so busy.
