Legal Question in Business Law in Texas

I did a freelance job on verbal agreements. I have emails back and forth that co-relates to that agreement. I have done meetings with them. i have a voice mail asking me to make the website live by one of the owners. They have not complained about any of my work. But after seeing my bill, they have a big problem. After allowing more then 2 weeks for them to make some kind of payment arrangements that work for both of us. I took pointed the website to under construction page for until they make a payment. They changed the website to a new one. The new website looks like they have been working on for a while with an intent of not using my services. They agreed to pay me hourly for my work.
