The guide vane of a gas turbine comprises a blade having an outer platform connectable to a guide vane carrier or gas turbine casing, and at the opposite end an inner platform that carries a cover plate. The inner platform has a dovetail housing to which the cover plate is connected. The method for replacing the cover plate consists in separating the cover plate from the inner platform by cutting along the profile of the dovetail housing, then making the cover plate to slide out of the dovetail housing, thus inserting a new or refurbished cover plate into the dovetail housing.
